    Weʼve raised £5 to Provide 'walking' cardiac monitors and prevent unnecessary heparin injections by keeping people in bed attached to bedside monitors

    Story

    Having been rushed to hospital because of bradychardia and diagnosed with complete heart block, I was stuck in bed for 11 days, unable to have a proper wash or a shower and having unnecessary heparin injections because I was bed bound and hooked up to a wall mounted unit. Would like to help those that are able to walk around with a mobile monitoring unit rather than being stuck in bed needlessly having blood thinning injections (some twice daily). This is in no way a reflection on the staff they were fabulous. Just a lack of funding for mobile units. Consider this - the average heparin injection costs between £10 and £175. 1 monitor could pay for itself within a week!
