When I had my transfusion a couple of days ago the doctor told me that he had a 78 year old lady in the next room who had a Hb of 75 post surgery and that she was completely asymptomatic. (I think he was having a dig at me). After thinking about it, I decided that when I was lying around in bed I was asymptomatic too. But, I don't have that luxury. I live by myself, do my own cooking, washing vacuuming etc all while I'm disabled with highly spastic legs.
I just smiled at the doctor and told him I must be a bit more precious than that lady because I definitely didn't feel good. That's how my issue starts as well....I get an irregular heart beat then get dizzy and breathless. I was recently diagnosed with ectopic heartbeats and am taking Propanolol but although my heart feels less "fluttery" I still have missed beats.
Oh well, if that's as bad as I get I have nothing to complain about. I feel very blessed compared to a lot of people on this forum.
Regards
Chirley
