Regardless if you've known your hairdreser for years, you still don't know what they're doing when not cutting your hair. Cutting other peoples hair? You still need to socially distance in my opinion and I don't think that is possible. My hairdresser I have known for years too but her daughter...
My Daughter is only 30 and Im convinced she has it but she couldn't get a test. Mostly because she works from home. She had a temperature as high a 39 degrees and she had dreadful pain in her back and kidneys. She has returned to work (from home) has a 2 year old to deal with and not feeling...
I just wanted to say that being vulnerable TO the virus is not an issue for us. I think that is people who are on immunosuppressants. The effect on some of us is how ill we get if we get it. I don't seem to have been earmarked for that either and I am pre surgery. I don't particularly want...
Ive not been following this thread so far as the whole thing leaves me in fear. I guess Im going to have to make some kind of contact with my hospital and surgeon because I have no idea what is going on. No new symptoms though when Im sure I will be in touch.
With regard to the NHS letters...
Thank you and I hope you remain well and asymptomatic. I have some breathlessness ie can't walk as far but it has always been difficult to assess as I have quite bad arthritis in my legs so that pain stops me really testing it out. I feel quite well like you. I have been under surveillance...
Im in the UK too and my surgery was meant to be about now but I can't get to speak with anyone about it. My GP has written to surgeon in hope of some kind of reply. However you say yours won't be until next year now. How do you feel about that. Have you been advised it can go that long? Im...
Im under 70 but I am awaiting my surgery. My gp doesn't seem to think I have huge problem re self isolating (I am extremely cautious anyway) but does anyone know differently ie what conditions they are referring to.
He said it would be respiratory problems such as severe lung conditions.
You sound like me Freebird. I’ve been living with this for 2 years now and I’ve been severe for the last 6 months. The surgeon said now is the time but various other things have come up in the work up for surgery which have been looked into. They know that I wanted to delay it a bit if I...
I was never referred to a cardiologist as such. I was immediately referred to a surgeon because the echocardiogram had been read wrongly. It classed me as critical and when I arrived at the surgeons office that Id been referred to, he doubted the measurements and said if they had been correct...
I know that there are other details and measurements to take into account, but who else has had a valve size of around 0.85 cm and was still not operated on for a couple of years; oviously dependant on other figures and symptoms.
