It turns out I have a major problem, but now that we know about it and can treat it, the outcome is expected to be OK.
I had no obvious symptoms (but my lifestyle choices have now changed ) and if it hadn't been for regular check ups I would have dropped dead in the next few months.
My message...........have regular check ups......no-one is bullet proof.
End of sermon !
