Farq!! I nearly died!

[TonyB]

Bloody hell Biff! MrsB directed me to this one- best wishes and get well soon from the B family. Look after yourself mate, and make sure you do what the medicly types tell you

Despite the fact I keep telling my missis that I could die at any time, she still wont allow a man his last request, a three some with my wife, myself and Charlie from High 5.

Nah- she's gotten very skinny, was highly disapointing sitting in the front row at the last Hi5 concert- all her curves were gone

Glad you're back with us Biff. Would have been a very scary experience for you. I've seen this done in hospital and am now qualified to do it out on the road.

For those that are interested, Biff's atrial rate would have been over 300 per minute resulting in the atria failing to contract. The AV node is unable to cope with all the incoming impulses and cardiac ouput decreases. Because Biff was unstable he required cardioversion. This is where an electrical current is passed through the heart during a specific part of the cardiac cycle to terminate the dysrythmia. Basically the heart stops very briefly to allow the pacemaker sites to return to normal.

AF is a common dysrhythmia, especially in the elderly, and can be well controlled with medication.

Take care Biff - things just wouldn't be the same on here without our smutty little Welshman.

Thanks for the ups on this RR, it's always intersting when someone qualifed explains things for us lay people.

Glad you're recovering, Biff. HAd a simialr type of scare when I was a young fella, gives you a awful fright! Was more scared of the huge size of the syringe and needle at the time from memory! Worried the hell outta my mate who had to carry me and the then girlfriend. But she's been married to me for 29yrs now so she musta forgiven me I guess.

Many thanks for the kind words peeps. I wont respond to all of you, suffice to say I'm grateful to y'all. Except to Mr & Mrs D - suck my purple warrior ya biatches.

I'm suitably rested now, well, I had a day off work but got bored with the PS2 and poxy TV, so I'm back in the orrafice taking it easyish, playing on my 'fatigue' by demanding that everyone else makes coffee.

It's kinda nice having Ether friends. Makes me almost believe that you're all real, and not some weird software programme invented simply to amuse/annoy me. Which I know you are. Apart from Scum Dog. No fooker could invent any software capable of emulating that freaking moustacho.

Big rispek

BTW, having a porn night soon, you should come.

...Despite the fact I keep telling my missis that I could die at any time, she still wont allow a man his last request, a three some with my wife, myself and Charlie from High 5...

Don't want to rain on your iminent parade Biff, but Charlie isn't what shes cracked up to be in person. We went along to the Feb concert (well, I just HAD to go with my girls didn't I), expecting to get all revved up seeing Charlie in the pink (so to speak), and bugger me if she hasn't gone all anorexic and pasty as. Obviously not a sun lover. Now Kelly, thats a different story. A little on the cuddly side, but as Denny Crane says "I LIKE chubby sex". Full of energy too. She'd go off like a bunger!!

[Biff]

Damn blast and buggery - I don't dig skinny, or even lean chicks. Maybe if I let Charlie munch on my pork sausage she'll put on a few more pounds.

Did I just say that out loud?
