I've now had an echocardiogram which was normal but am still getting shortness of breath and central chest pain with exertion. Cardiology have been marvellous. The specialist Cardiology nurse has talked to one of the consultants and she actually came down to the haematology clinic and met Karine & I directly after we'd seen Prof for my weekly Haematology review. The upshot is an Angiogram with a view to fixing any problems with my coronary arteries that they see at the time. This will be on Monday 1st of February.
Haematologically things are going well. Prof continues to slowly reduce the steroids - so far so good! With a bit of luck I'll be off Prednisolone by the end of February and hopefully I will start to lose the cushingoid 'moon' and the extra chin face they are giving me.
