Heart ablation

apparently it went very well thankfully. all being well she'll be home around 7pm by hospital transport.

I made myself physically and mentally ill like I always do over most things lol

but I'm fine today thanks 💛

mums a little sore but otherwise good thanks, her BP and pulse have already entered normal safe levels instead of one being consistently dangerously low and the other high, The letter from her team suggests it was a success and they are happy.

They're now forensically studying the chain of events from march to try and work out exactly what sent the pulse to a fatal and rare rate of 185 bpm, because she had general anesthetic again yesterday that's now ruled out.

They're hoping by February when she goes back for a follow up to 100% say it won't and can't happen again.

No it was a dangerous one off, the average was 95-130 which is tachycardia, apparently normal is 60-85

it's now 65-75 for the first time in 3 years so now we are hoping the heart failure will reverse as AF is ons of the (thankfully); reversible types of Heart Failure. The ejection facture is 35 they want it back to at least 50.

Thanks for your kindness and support and hope you'll get your procedure done and feel better soon. 💛🫂

Sorry it's taken so long to respond, my health has literally not let up all year so far one train wreck after another, so asleep most the time or on appointments. I've already had the dangerously high bp, that's now fully under control, I have now narrowly avoided hospital after a gum abscess spread to the tonsils, sinus and lymph nodes

This is because one dentist didn't bother to x ray or treat it and another whinged I was 2 pound heavier than the dental chair maximum weight of 17 stone. 2 pathetic pound

(I've now shifted 16 pound anyway but on principle not going back to either)

so it's run riot after being there 7 months, one tonsil is now worryingly enlarged and being monitored and I'm on about 15 pills with the energy level of a 400 year old battery. awaiting dentist number 3 to send an appointment and virtually living at the GP practice.

mums doing brilliantly thanks for asking her bp is now in normal ranges and the pulse mostly also, which suggests her heart has improved pump and function, dialysis can raise the bp to concerning levels on rare occasions but a 25mg metoprolol deals with that.

thanks for asking and I hope you're doing well.
