Yesterday ended with DB being carted off to hospital yet again with palpitations. No way could we get a Dr. so arranged an ambulance and he was taken to Glenfield.
He rang this morning and said he saw the Dr about 4.am and the palpitations went off shortly afterwards so they lasted 9 hours. He has been given 3 choices, 2 different tablets and an ablation. We have gone for one of the tablets and he is being assessed for an ablation. The ablation would mean his heart will rely entirely on his pacemaker. He is starting the medication today and hopes to come home this afternoon or early evening. I have to wait on a phone call.
I had a really bad night, just could not get off so was reading until around 4am, when I eventually dozed off.
Its a sunny morning and quite warm, so the heat did not kick in. Cooked the salmon for tonight, will have a light salad with it as DB will get a cooked lunch in hospital.
Cleaned down the surfaces in the kitchen, prior to doing the rest of the kitchen on Monday. only a small amount of washing so no point in doing that.
I guess, thanks to the new covoid instructions there will be no coffee mornings for a while. It does make me cross when I see people going about, especially youngsters in crowds, no thought for those of us who have been in isolation since early March. I had been thinking of a trip into Melton, no way now. I cannot put either of us at risk.
So supper tonight is salmon salad, DB can have a yogurt for dessert.
I had to smile last night, they checked DB's blood sugar and it was 11.... the top threshold is 10, he had a peppermint just before his palps started.........the ambulance people kept asking me if he was diabetic....
