It was wet and dark in West London last night where a group of us stretched, stepped, walked and did all sorts of things my body hasn't been used to.
All my fellow participants were much more agile and fit than me and after 20 minutes my heart wasn't in it any more and I wanted to get home to the iPlayer. But they kept me going and I lasted till the end.
My blood pressure was checked both before and after the session which was reassuring.
And I'll be back, twice a week, where possible. At £4.50 per session it was good value.
I felt surprisingly good on the way home. Angina hadn't appeared......this time. But the trusty GTN Spray was in the holster just in case.
But are GPs aware of this facility? Do they inform angina patients? Not in my experience.
