Heart aflutter again.
I just spent the day in hospital with a heart flutter. I am on beta blockers, as it happened about March last year too. Not sure if it is my age or a follow on from the 2016 chemo but it is annoying t...

I finally got a disability pension. I just cannot get back to what I was before breast cancer 7 years ago but at least now I have some financial security and can pay my bills again. My heart meds are cheaper too as they are all covered on the pbs scheme so I don't have a heart attack getting the bill for heart meds any more. I can also see my doctor now for free as he only bulk bills pensioners. The rest have to pay and I haven't had the income for that especially for full skin cancer checks which are about $200.
Interestingly, my mum also has Atrial Fibrillation and recently had a pacemaker inserted. That is after she had covid like me and the heart meds she was on decided not to work either.
I visited her in the same hospital I had been in and the stress of if brought on my Atrial Fibrillation that night while I was asleep (reliving the hospital in my mind) but an extra heart pill and then another in the morning finally quietened my heart back in to rhythm.
We find out if the contract on the house sale is unconditional on Monday. They have finance but are arguing the price down some more. You can't get blood out of a stone and we are as low as we can go so they will have to decide if they want the house at the price in the contract or not.
We have a new house to move to which will be no loan to buy. It's only a 3 bedroom but there is a 4th one we could make out of a formal dining room when we save up some money for someone to put a wall and a door in.
Monday I will be chasing our bank, or our solicitor will, to get a mortgage release and a payout figure on the loan. Twice I have tried contacting them but because its a business structured loan, none of the regular staff can touch it. Someone must be handling it as the interest rate went up again to 7.93%. It is very frustrating. I hope there aren't too high a penalties or we will be short on settlement on the new house or may not have enough moneys for a removalist. Just hoping it will all work out alright and on 23rd March we will be in our new house, albeit a long way from any beaches.
