Well, that's a question that comes out of left field and certainly not one that our GP back in leafy Surrey fourteen or more years ago would have thought to ask.
We're talking pacemakers. Inserted just below the collar bone, right where the stock of a shotgun nestles. Apparently, depending on which side the hunter holds his firearm, the surgeon will choose the other side to operate.
That's a piece of information I would have hoped never to need to know!
Specifically, we are talking MY soon-to-be pacemaker. To be fitted, assuming I test negative for COVID, on December 30th. A late Christmas present, just in time for New Year celebrations.
Who would have thought that mild heart palpitations which started in October and might have been dismissed as nothing more than slight pandemic anxiety, should lead to this.
When the French health service swings into action, it doesn't hang about.
Well that will be a good Christmas gift and will help you to a healthier New Year. Best wishes to you both and the dogs. Lesley
