7.2 - Well, Playmates, much to inform y'll. Over the last three months, I've been in and out of Hospital and finally have been diagnosed with Cardiac disease, brought on by T2. Yes, T2 has banjaxed me with a parting gift of Arterial cardiac collapse, requiring me to have a triple bypass. Yeah, much consternation in Castille Estragon. I'm posting this here in the hope it gives others an opportunity to rule this out for themselves. Did I have any indication of the severity or its occurrence? None. Except for feeling rubbish and needing longer spells to recover on a walk back from our local shops. However, this last in-patient admission had a sure enough, indication of a cardiac "incident", I didn't feel a thing.
 
Not seeing bloods I like at the moment but I'm just keeping on, keeping on. Tablets seem to be working to resolve the abscess issue as swelling has gone down but mouth is still extremely sore with exposed tooth nerves causing loss of sleep. My own fault I really should keep away from pork crackling.. FBG was 6.4 this morning. Hoping all of us who are experiencing higher than desirable levels start to see improvements soon . All the best folks.
 
Routing for you @Estragon.
