diagnosed.

In 2014 I was diagnosed with Long qt syndrome, i was waiting for my school bus, i quickly felt unwell and my skin colour went white, i became light headed and sick. i suddenly collpase on the floor i rushed into hospital i had a ecg and it showed i had long qt syndrome. at first i was scared as i never heard of this before in my life, i had to give up everything ( i was a sport adddict) i was a very competitive person in all and every sport.

i was very upset knowing i had to give up on my dreams. but, a year later i realised life isnt always about what you dream to have pr beome its about respecting your self as a person, and people around them.

since being diagnosed i found out that i have type one long qt syndrome, my llife is getting back on track. amd to be honest i wouldnt change my condtition for no one, as it would me i wouldnt be the person i am now, and meet my love of my life. i am so happy im settled down in my work.

if you have any questions for me or wish to have a chat with me at all please dont hesitate to email me on.

I’m so sorry you had to quit your sports, that must’ve been horrible. I’m glad you’ve realized that health is more important in many cases, though. I have type 2 so i am able to do sports, thankfully enough, but I hope there’s someday a good enough cure so you can get back to doing what you love ❤️
