I had my cardiology review on Monday with a GPSI (GP with special interest). My BP was 162/104, but the ECG was ok, and he confirmed the chest X-ray was clear, so he doesn’t feel there is anything wrong with my heart, so that was a relief to hear. It seems my periods of shortness of breath – which are far less frequent – are probably just stress. Back to the GP in a couple of weeks then to check how I’m getting on with the statin, and to sort out the additional BP medication.
