    Thanks everyone xxxx

    I've been to the doctors and I have to have an ECG on Wednesday - really REALLY scared. I've been having sort of palpitation things, and feeling like my heart stops for a few seconds. The doctor thinks is likely to be stress, but there's a bit of a family history of heart and blood pressure problems so she wants to be sure.

    The kids have gone to my Mum and Dad's for a couple of nights - really wish they were here so I could give them a cuddle.

    Snags - after all you've been through recently I'm not surprised you're a bit stressed even though it was ultimately a joint decision, I bet you felt a little guilty about making the first steps. Even though it sounds like the right way to go. Try to go for walks rather than running over the next few days, and even though you miss the kids enjoy the time and space for yourself.

  • Morning all.
    Snags, I get palpilations quite frequently. In themselves they're harmless but it's more the frequency and how many you have in a day that they look for as it can be signs of other things. Apparently anything up to 10 times a day is fine though from what I was told.

  • Snaggles,
    Im so sorry it's got to this point, but you're doing it the best way possible. there will be many ups and downs i'm sure, but please remember you have all of us here to help-you've been my rock throughout my ANUS horriblius (lol) and now it's my turn to return the favour. Again, my only wish is I was closer so I could just sit and give you a hug, and drink many MANY cups of tea (me) and wine/woowoo (you). I love you friend.

    (hug)
