Thank you everyone for tour good wishes on the announcement of my CBE.
I was taken aback by the number of well wishers. Many of you have held me up, cheered my successes and supported silently when I most needed it.
No one gets anywhere alone.
Thank you all.

🫀AF on 12 lead ECG➡️ 5x more risk than PCM-detected AF
