Aye, but if I walk a hundred yards I'm out of breath, and if I do that with a bit of an incline, I sweat buckets. Currently not as much fun as it could be.
The point is taken about how it could be worse, but I'm starting to look at the shower and toaster to see if I could arrange just a tinsy jolt here or there to sort myself out...

Hmm, plans are afoot. No real change, but...
Given that with a bit of luck I'll have an electric shock running through me under medical conditions in the near future, how bad would it be as a patient to turn up with a red nose on and an A4 piece of paper on my torso with the 'Operation' printout on it?

Oh. Wait. I misread. Not an actual operation, they're just zapping you for some obscure reason. Very well, carry on.
(Hope it goes well Raps.)

Update time!
Got to the consultant and it was his stand in. This is the guy who will be cardioverting me, so a bit of training about warfarin and how to take it and stuff and what to avoid. Leafy greens in abundance are bad, as are excess bananas, and egg yolk all due to levels of vitamin K (a coagulant). Supposed to avoid shaving (not a problem, heh), and with a bit of luck and with a number of blood tests in the process, I'll be shocked back to abnormality in about six weeks.

For those keeping track, I'm now on warfarin and having my blood tested every week on Friday. The first test was on the Tuesday above and I scored 1, which is the human standard. On the Friday after starting warfarin, 1.3, and this Friday 2.7 - still on 5mg of the blessed chemical.
Still told to keep on the same dosage and we'll see next week, I guess, but on Tuesday I get to see a pre-assessor. Yay!

Wandered off for a pre-assessment. Had to stick a giant cotton bud (Q tip) up my nose to make sure I don't have MRSA. Childhood hobbies are now medical necessities.
Also, I apparently get to keep my trousers on for the procedure. Guess I'm not getting any dinner bought for me first.
