All Clear











I had to attend the Western Infirmary yesterday for more tests on my heart.

They wired me up to a couple of machines, then took images of my heart at rest.

Then it was on to the treadmill. The aim was to get my heart under stress so that the workings of the heart valves could be measured.
I was not looking forward to this at all, as the letter had advised that there was the possibility that a heart attack could be triggered.

They were aiming for me to manage 8 minutes of increasing speed on the treadmill. I just managed 9 minutes.

There was no pain, just exhaustion. I am not that fit.
The results showed that no further action is required, no surgery, just to continue with the 4 pills I am on.

Thanks to all who prayed for me!
