Hi again
Well, my life is certainly full of surprises at the moment!

Great news today! The job I applied for at my local hospital a few weeks ago, originally they wanted full time staff only. I've heard from them today that they are still really keen to employ me, as I have 32 years NHS experience, & will be flexible about the hours. They have sent me some online tests to complete by Monday & if I pass them (I hope so!!) they will give me an interview next Thursday. Wow, I did not expect that great news today!

I spoke to my EP yesterday about getting a job & he was very positive about it & agreed to it. I didn't expect to hear about a job quite so soon though ie next day! I had given up on this particular one because I didn't hear back from them a few weeks ago when I said I could only work 3 days a week.

Today, after a good night's sleep, I feel SO much better about yesterday's SA node news too. I just got so exhausted with it all yesterday.

The positive is that I haven't actually got IST yet, my EP is just keeping that in mind due to my particular arrythmia history & location of my 2 atrial arrythmias I had in the past. So, while I could develop it, equally I might not. He is an excellent EP & I trust him 100%, so if I do develop any further problems I know I'll be in his excellent hands.

I e-mailed the Head of Pacing last night to update her, as she has been looking after me & my PM since last year & my EP wants me to let her know directly if I do get any further symptoms etc. I had such a lovely e-mail back from her today. She said she totally agrees with my EP that things need to be monitored & left to stabalise over the next 6 months & I am to let her know straight away if I get any more symptoms.

She also reassured me a lot about any forthcoming gynae surgery, being PM dependent. So now I've had really positive responses from her & my EP about any surgery. I feel now that whatever the gynae Dr says I need doing to treat my prolapse, I will be able to go ahead & feel safe with my PM. I'm still waiting for a clinic appt to see the gynae Dr.

Isn't it amazing how things can look SO much better just overnight!

I have such a fantastic cardiac team & I know that everything they do is the best thing for me. I am really lucky to have such a great team.

On that happy & positive note...please keep your fingers crossed for my online tests & possible interview next Thursday.
Thanks. I'll keep you posted.

Best wishes
Janey
