An ex GF has it, took ages to diagnose as everyone thought she was making it up. This was in the mid ninetees though. No idea if she’s had anything done about it since. Was crazy when it would kick off out of knowhere.

Ah wow. Yeah that sounds familiar.
She’s been in to see people before but unless they can trigger it whilst strapped to a ecg machine there’s not much they can do.
We bought this home ecg detector thing you can use with an app on your phone. They showed she wasn’t making it up or anything but they couldn’t actually use them for anything.
This thing she’s going to do today is to try and force it to happen so they can diagnose it, find where it is and cauterise it if they can.
I think if they can’t find it today that will basically be it for life i think.

Yeah that sucks as a situation. Like a human version of taking your car to a garage and saying it’s making a bad knocking noise but then you you show them and it doesn’t do it. They just look at you like you’re a twat. inserts obligatory Armando Iannucci show episode
Hope they sort it for her.

I know a couple of people who have had an ablation and it solved their problem in both cases. Fingers crossed for Mrs Zeppelin

Cheers Ciaran.
Ok.
She’s out. She’s ok but has had a migraine after the whole thing so could do without that.
They also gave her fentanyl so she’s obviously a hopeless drug addict now too.
Good news is they got whatever it was that was causing the palpitations. Stooooooked.
I’m still not allowed in. Been hanging around for 10 hours now. Good news though.

Clearing out the spare room that is full of stuff we hoarded over the years. Literally stood still doing nothing and my backs gone. Now lay on the sofa feeling sorry for myself… Although I am watching the Manchester derby so maybe this was my plan all alone and this should go in the stoked thread instead

Got popped by a speed van doing 35 on a 30 road coming down a hill. I do not need this bullshit.
Then follow the speed limits you sausage.
But also that sucks.

Big empty country lane going into Kirkby he was parked adjacent to the tree canopy so I couldn’t see him at the brow of the hill as I was coming down. I’ll just have to eat it.
