Really
I ring them after 12 30
I have to meds from pharmacy
It's not helping that I have an online friend in canada never met but she had very strong veiws on meds and Dr's Sge won't take any meds
Belives in homeopathic treatment only
The nurse told me they don't work complimentary therapies
This so cold freind says all the medical professionals including vets are out to kill us and I cannot take the Dr's meds or I will die
I'm. Very stressed and so scared I will die in my sleep from heart attack like mum

Morning everyone 😊
Sorry to hear you're thinking of leaving @Roughyed1485, I've popped you an email. I know it's been a really tough time for you lately so I hope you're doing as well as possible.
That sounds promising @Schildpad! Fingers crossed that your letter comes through soon so you can get some clarity on how things will change.
Sending you lots of love @Amberpearl. Santosha's kind response about the helpline looks really worth looking into. I'm sure they will be really helpful and might be able to put your mind at ease.
My dad lived with AF for quite a few months on all the medications. At times it wasn't easy and the abnormal rhythm wore him out a lot, but after receiving treatment he's now back in a normal rhythm and feeling like himself again. It's pretty scary to face it all, but the cardiologists will hopefully set up a treatment plan for you and we're all here to support you in the meantime 💛

I read a message from the chat that once you get money backdated. They will be asking for bank statements a year later. It came.a lot of money together . So I have to splash the money in a years time.
Bad times could happen and that my money is very welcome. .and it is their fault. Anyway I will see what happen.
But I live in constant anxiety. This should make me feel better but I am feeling quite the opposite.

Your dad is still alive and well?

I do hope you'll feel up to ringing them @Amberpearl. I have no doubt at all that they'll help you. Because they want to, as doctors do too. They've not trained for 7 years plus to cause us harm.
Good luck to your friend if she believes only in homeopathic care.
If I hadn't have had antibiotics in Dec to Feb for double pnuemonia I wouldn't be here now (sepsis). So I, personally, thank God, or whoever, for our medications and the expert care we can get.
Homeopathic treatment didn't help my mum recover from two different cancers either - conventional medicine did though like surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
I have no truck with people who try to persuade others of potentially unsafe treatment and interventions: no patience with them whatsoever. OK if they want to limit what they have for themselves, they can take their chance. But complete nonsense in my humble opinion (sorry, but not sorry - I don't tend to mince my words!).
Finally, beta blockers restored my BP and pulse (which was 145 per min in Dec). And I've seen it in my nursing career (including the huge work done in evidence-based trials to get drugs approved) with very many positive outcomes including much longer lives!
Do what's right for you @Amberpearl but I'd say please, just have an open mind and seek out the right people to advise you like cardiology, your nurses, the AF charity. Lots of warmest wishes to you and 🫂.

Roughyed, I'm sorry to read how bad you're feeling at the moment.
Please note I said at the moment. I hope you don't leave the forum, especially now.
I know what abandonment feels like and wanting to cut all ties. I doubt that's what anyone in your family wants you to do. Divorce is hard, I know that one too. Unless children are involved, it is very final. But family is different - you are still somebody's son, brother, uncle, cousin.
Sending a hug.

Hello, my day is going ok. I've been really anxious, but it's actually calmed down a bit now. I went to Art group and that helped. I got really focussed on my artwork and it gave me a bit of a break from thinking and worrying.
Popped into Lidl on the way home and got some cherry ice cream. :)

Glad you've had an okay day @pyjamaviking! Art is such a good thing to do to get a break from the difficult thoughts. Really helps to take your mind off things even just for a little while. The cherry ice cream sounds delicious too, enjoy!
