That is awful, MrsLizzieDarcy. I hope a second ablation dramatically relieves his condition. Does he have flecainide, or some other anti-arrhythmic at home to use as “pill in the pocket”?

No, he's just on bisoprolol at present, I'll get him to ask about this when he sees the GP next week. Thanks for this, I've googled it and it seems like there are a few options for this.

I'm sorry to all of you who have had a tough week.

I feel bit down but everything is fine really. Some minor work stress and a pain in the arse husband all exacerbated by hormones...

DC asleep now and I'm catching up on traitors in bed which is nice!

Unfortunately yes.

Partner broke up with me and can’t explain why

Boiler started leaking profusely and conked out; engineer couldn’t fix it

House an absolute state and no energy to tackle it

Constant headache from stress/period

Finding it really difficult to leave the house

Need to move/find new school and can’t find anything

DC unwell (thankfully OK now and that’s all that really matters ❤️)

I need a mindset shift - tomorrow’s a good start 11/1!

4th time

I've had a shit start to 2026 - DH is in hospital waiting for a heart bypass. But mercifully my employer is good and is being understanding of me working shorter hours around hospital visiting and keeping things normal for DD. Surgery scheduled for tomorrow but looks as though recovery will be long and hard - I could do with fast forwarding to 2027!

Flowers to everyone dealing with even worse things!
