Update long post Sorry!

So we are about eight weeks into 2020. Out of those eight weeks there was one week where I didn’t have an outpatients appointment, physio appointment, GP visit. What a life!   So at the beginning of January I finally met with the cardiologist  about the hole in my heart that was discovered when I had my stroke. It was one of the most frustrating appointments I have ever had because we were left waiting for an hour in the exam room while the Doctor Who was the  grouchiest  doctor I think I’ve ever met to go and talk to the main consultant . In fact  pissed me off so much that I have made a complaint. I have 25 years of experience of these kind of appointments and I have never felt like I was taking up somebody’s time or so unimportant as I did with thi s.    Anyway the outcome was they are not going to close the hole in my heart. When I had the stroke there was a random clot in my  aorta  and they have no idea why it was there how it got there and they haven’t seen it before.
