Starry, any news on Pippa? She's having a rough time, poor girl and so are you. I hope you get some positive news soon.x
 

Good morning, the good news they are pretty sure it was not a heart attack but the not so good news is there is an area in her heart which is not working properly and goes over 166 beats a minute , even when she is given medication it takes at least an hour to slow down enough so she can talk and her breathing is easier , so she is being referred to someone who will probably put some sort of electrical current into her  heart and hope this does the job, a bit along the lines of a pacemaker but different, it is all very confusing ,  she is having an MRI today which has been planned for a few weeks to see what the pains are in her pelvis  and then she will be coming home . I am not sure if she will be allowed to work for a while no one thought to ask so they have e mailed the cardiologist and asked him. 
I am cooking a Roast Lamb lunch and will plate up a plate for Pippa and her husband ready for when she gets home and then we can all relax for a while.

Pippa is home, she has got Junctional tachycardia with retrograde P waves !   they will try a different Beta blocker and something else ( I can't remember the name) to see how she gets on if not they will put an electrical  current via her pelvis into  part of her heart and stop the muscles that are causing the problem and this should make a difference but they would rather try the medication first. She looks fine and was  planning to go to work until  we all said no way, so she has agreed to stay at home this week. The MRI was a no go they could not find any veins to put the dye in so she will have to go back again.

Good morning everyone.

Its dry here but cloudy.

I'll be off to bowls this afternoon.

That's good news, Starry I hope the medication works. Pippa needs a break from ill health problems.
