From the Beginning

I have had heart failure since the late 80's

My first major crisis was in 2016. After nearly 30 years with heart failure I woke in ICU following a cardiac arrest and a coma. I had been ill with what appeared to be repeated cold like viruses and was diagnosed on arrival in hospital with multiple organ failure. No-one has been able to answer questions I have had about why I became ill so quickly and no treatment has been started.

I waiting for an appointment for a cardiologist to arrive but I won't be holding my breath as it will be 3 years since my diagnosis next month
