Happy Birthday

Good morning, thank you all so much for your kind wishes,

My ECG was still a little high, but my pulse was 70 when done manually. 

Thankfully they have no concerns. but I need to go back again next week to have another ECG and have been told to calm myself down before I go.

How am I supposed to do that if I naturally fear the Dr's!!!

xXx

Anyway I have a card for my next door neighbours little girl,

She's 3, and is having her fairy party later today. 

Mackenzie is really looking forward to it, as because she's a bit older she's in charge of the party games.

Truly Scrumptious - Buttons & Bows

Good morning to ya,

Hope you are all well, I'm a bit nervous as I've got an ECG this morning.

It all started because my BP was high & they wanted to stop my HRT 

(which I'm still not 100% happy about taking)

when they checked again my BP was perfect, but my pulse was 118, I've had a monitor at home all week & I think it's been fine, so fingers crossed all will be ok.

Anyway it's challenge time at Truly Scrumptious and this week we want to see
