I can’t thank everyone enough

Posted By memberqq46

"I can’t thank everyone enough"

About: Golden Jubilee National Hospital / Cardiac Surgery Queen Elizabeth University Hospital Glasgow / Accident & Emergency Queen Elizabeth University Hospital Glasgow / Cardiac Rehabilitation

(as the patient),

In the middle of December 2024 I was in my work and became unwell I was taken to the QEUH when I was told I was having a massive heart attack.

The staff were amazing and had me blue lighted to the golden jubilee where I had 2 stents fitted. When I was allowed home I was scared and nervous to do anything, I then went for an appointment in January at the QEUH cardiac rehab.

Theresa and Craig gave me the confidence to exercise again and ask question without feeling silly, I then started a walking group with them it has been great. I’m finishing now but they have a class at night I can go to so I’m not just left to it.

Donna the cardiac nurse was great checking me over and answer question on medication.

I can’t thank everyone enough it’s been a life line thank you so much 😊
