Iain Emms Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Well then chaps I thought I would let you know here on the forum I know some of you have noticed I'm not doing what I normally do here on the forum but I'm in hospital at the moment having been brought in and then diagnosed with Arterial Fluctuations my heart rate was going a bit fast around 175 beats a min. Now I have been diagnosed with heart failure which is where the heart isn't pumping blood around your body at full whack I will be on medication now for the rest of my life but thats a small price to pay. As you all know I love being here on the forum but at the moment I only have my phone with me in hospital so I can't do a lot of things I normally do here but hopefully I will be home in the next day or so. In my self I feel great just get tired easy at the moment but hopefully that will get better with the medication. So onwards. Cheers Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
