So we went to Auckland on Tuesday night because Frank had a scheduled electrophysiology study on his heart. After a few doctors and specialist visits since the end of last year, we finally found the cause of his ocassional palpitation and one incident of dizziness. He was expecting to do an ablation on his heart today but during the electrophysiology study, the doctor reckons his heart was normal enough and he didn't need the ablation done. He was hospitalised for a whole day after the procedure and could not come back to Whangarei with me. Too bad I had to work tomorrow so I had to come back alone, it was quite a scary drive back because the rain and wind was terrible and I was driving in the dark for 3 hours, with Pinky in the car with me. Frank is usually the driver and I am not used to driving long distance alone.
Poor hubby was in so much pain at the area of insertions after his procedure. He also had an episode of low blood pressure and almost fainted at the hospital. Thankfully we now know that his heart is normal and he does not have any increased risk of getting arrhythmia in the future. He is now safely discharged and resting at home with my parents. Guess I will be spending my coming Easter long weekend in Auckland.
I was having sleepless nights about this and was trying really hard not to think too much about it. Thankfully it is now all over and I know my hubby is fine.
That was a big reminder about how we take things for granted all the time. You can never give too much love and kisses to your loved ones, especially the ones you see everyday.
