Off Topic This might just save your life….

****ing hell mate…..glad to hear they got to you quick enough. The stroke window is now 10 hours for Thrombosis, instead of the previous 4 hours so we’re able to get patients to the right place for the right treatment if necessary.
I’m assuming they’ve done a few ECGs to work out what’s going on ? Have they mentioned possible AF ? Or untreated high blood pressure ?
Sorry putting my medical head on.
All the best fella and keep us informed

 

Good luck with your recovery pal - that's not good news at all

 

I'm having so many things done at the moment pal I can't keep up. I have a brick like thing round my neck at tge moment with wires all connected round my chest for 24 hours. Got more heaet tests and scans tomorrow. The crazy thing is they think it might very occurred up to 2 days before the fall , they can't pinpoint exactly when it occurred. At this moment I feel absolutely drained but very grateful things aren't worse

 

****ing hell.
All the best mate.

 

Nice to hear from you again Stainsey although not the news. Great positive attitude will help a lot, keep us informed and here's to a happy outcome...

 

Thanks pal

 

Are they suspecting TIA’s mate, or ruling out other things ?
Sounds very “cardiac” to my obviously limited knowledge so I expect they will be going down that route…..

 

That sounds horrific mate, you are lucky as it could have ended so much worse. You're in the best place and hopefully make a full recovery. Stay positive and all the best...

 

Christ Hammer that must have been awful, you take care & hope everything works out ok for you, get them to set up a TV for you tomorrow

 

Best wishes to both Staines & Hammersmith, hope you both can get thru your troubles with the minimum of problems & pain.

 

All I know is they told me I had 4 small strokes on the right side of the brain caused by a clot that has broken off from somewhere. They did further CT scan to check for aneurysm which there thankfully isn't. Now they are concentrating on my heart, my poor brain probably couldn't comprehend wha theyver been saying beforehand yet alone now. Still have searing head pain that I've told them about. I'll let you know what else they tell me in the coming days.

 

Lol cheers Jeff but I think thst would kill me on the spot. You know how I get when we play ffs, any grimness from Roberts might cause self combustion

 

Please do mate….and genuinely all the best

 

This is the thing I've got round my neck for 24 hours with the leads attached to

 

I left a bit of nipple in the shot for Kiwi !

 

I assume that will monitor your heart for however long you wear it and see if you go into any arrhythmia like AF or SVT….I could be wrong though
It can happen that your heart just does some weird things occasionally

 

You slut you.

 

All the best Staines and Hammersmith...hope you both get seen by the right docs asap and wishing you both a speedy recovery.

 

So sorry to hear Staines. I hope everything goes well for you.

Great advice and has certainly got me motivated to get the PSA test. Thank you.
