Wednesday March 19, spent the day at the Yorkshire Clinic as I needed more tests to find out why I am getting so breathless when walking up hills.
Having spent last week skiing in Italy I couldn't believe it was anything too serious but my consultant wanted an angiogram to check it out. Not a very pleasant experience, but at least I could look at the TV screen and see what was happening to my own heart in real time.End result was that I don't require any more heart surgery and the condition can be treated by yet another regular tablet. Total now is nine per day, I rattle when I walk!
Checked it out on Saturday by walking up steep hill from centre of Skipton to our home and managed this without any sign of breathlessness so I am pretty happy, a good result.
