35 Notes

Health update

Thanks for the well-wishes, folks. Not feeling any better today unfortunately, despite Danielle’s world-class caring for me (seriously, earlier she even took my shoes off for me because bending down was difficult!)

Whilst wearing a pulseox meter, a two-minute walk around the car part at a moderate pace had my blood-oxygen level down to 88% and my heart going at 163bpm. My GP took blood for a number of tests and I’ve had a chest x-ray to compare with one I had in 2008, specifically to look for the possibility of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and other heart conditions. Test results come tomorrow; I’ll keep you all updated.
