Just read about your time is hospital Foxy and, although there must have been some worry, it sounds good and the food was good too! 
You are not the best at doing as you are told, but please try hard till they say you can move your arm without doing any damage.
Having the procedure so close to Christmas may prove to be a good thing…as you can’t move your arm much Mrs Fox and any visitors will have to do all the work & you can chat on here whenever you want 
It will be interesting to keep up to date with your progress!.

Great to read your account Foxy 
but I had to smile at the detail of the food!
Food is a priority when you’re in hospital!!

He’s a man! Food is always a priority for men.
Very well done Foxy. Try not to overdo it and DON’T try to out-pace your pacer…not yet anyway.
Take care.

Thanks everyone, I promise not to overdo it until next week…I expect results by then…
Good idea smiffy, I’ll try out the pacemaker and perhaps return to hospital next week for a ‘tune up’
The treatment at the Sheffield Northern General was brilliant Muddy. In fact, my previous visits in 2004 and 2014 were just the same. The staff (nurses, doctors and auxiliary) could not be faulted and I would always put my complete trust in the sharp end of the NHS.

Sorry LongDriver, I got distracted by all this covid stuff…
It’s a two lead version, and a router to relay information back to hospital, but I can’t seem to get Over Fifties on that router…

good to hear all went well and you are back home, I really didn’t expect the procedure to go ahead, someone I know had their operation at the NG cancelled for a second time recently due to lack of beds.
I hope you will be running again soon …

Bump. Gumbud was asking after you Foxy, and it seemed easier to bump the thread up.

I think the main initial thrust of the thread was about cancellations of the appointment.

or changing the windscreen wipers on a ford fiesta… no wait it’s probably far easier than that and works!

Not just a pacer, but a two lead job, indicating it has the defibrillation ability as well as pacing. That is a serious piece of kit and could knock Foxy off his feet at any time it detects a life threatening arrhythmia.
