Thanks Cazza, and Hi Rich,
Thanks for the support, i need all I can get right at this minute. I dont need to tell you all how bad it can get as i know youve all been there, and worse! Exercise bike arrives toomorow, and Ive set myself 1/2 hour target every night. Not a lot, but its a big step for me to get exercising again, what with the lack of fitness, and the fear of ectopics
I think the crux of the matter for me is frustration, thats what sent me over the edge at the weekend (apart from the panic, of course). I set out for a short walk, and i couldnt do it without, ectopics, fear, panic etc etc. Thats makes me angry and frustrated, which then makes me worse. Im sure youve all been there.
Anyway an update, I started beta blockers today, Id been holding off using them as I dont like the idea of not being in control, and having a drug control my heartrate goes against this for me. But after a conversation with my wife, she convinced me I had to do something, even if only short term. So propananol 80mg once a day, starting today. Lets see what happens.
Then im off on holiday for a week next week, so hopefully with a mix of drugs (Betablockers of course
) and time away with my family, perhaps i can get some things into perspective.
Lastly thanks to RLR, Im sure you hear this a lot, but its good to know your about and will take time to listen. Your words to me have been a great comfort, and been spookily accurate with regards tom mine and my wifes feelings?!?. I dare say I will be back very soon with more questions and worries.
Cheers
Stu
