Sorry, the detritus emanating from one special person on this board has been clearly over the top regarding lack of support for fellow posters which is evidenced by a profound fondness for rude and sarcastic remarks and a misguided, self-proclaimed tirade against information and those who reference it.  The board is not meant for debate, but rather, allowing people to freely express their views, with the objective of sharing experiences and information.  Experience includes information, and to even for a moment consider eliminating the latter, leaves us with nothing but opinions.

It's too bad.

That morning when I had the "no spike" ECG, I feel fine.  My heart was very quiet and not naughty at all!

The rest of the ECG that I had, all had spikes and some were very tall, some were up side down.  I think the pacemaker pacing is making me very unwell!   Few times, I begged him to turn it down but he thinks all are in the lower limits.  I want to try because someone on the other site said once his Dr turn it down.  He's feeling much more better and no more fib and don't have to take medicine anymore.  I wish my dr can fix up mine one like him!   By helping, I did the ECG to compare and holter monitor to tell him my 24 hours life.  He told me my pacemaker has a built in holter monitor, do not need that.  But..... he didn't know how unwell I'm!  ?He thought I'm a bionic woman!

va_tony is a very broad knowledge man.  He helps many people that I know of.  We use to ask him all sort of questions and he'll prompt to answer and show us the information.  He normally won't answer my post.

CollegeGirl,

I just wanted to thank you for setting people straight here.  I read this board for support not for information.  I hope we are succesful in keeping all information off the board.  It just burns me up.

obviously they can be :)  for someone who claims to have so much experience in the research field.. its a bit odd you lack the knowledge of how to write a proper mla citation, and that certain truths are lost on you, like the fact that reproducing even a public work without a proper mla cite (and a web url is not acceptable for future referral ;) ) is considered plagiarism ....Interesting things to make note of..... Im sure you would find your posts much more appreciated if there where infact written in light of personal experience rather than web trolling and mimicing doctors.. Good luck with that :)

>sigh< Va_tony.. mla style citation is used by hundreds of thousands of individuals, researchers, schools, students, literary journals, newspapers, in many different countries You name it.. it is currently the how to on how to cite ANY work.. sorry if that fact has been lost on you throughout your "career" as a researcher... Any time you use someone elses work, it needs to be cited CORRECTLY..Whether or not you try and pass it off as your own is irrelevent concerning the legalities of the situation... Are you sure you;ve done this before? There are other ways to cite besides mla, but if you can find me one that advises to cite the way you "cite", ill eat my words... i believe the general point being stressed is, Stand on your own two feet.

As you can see, this thread has made a positive turn into helping pika understand her ekg.. do you have anything positive to add? or are you done posting?

College Girl --- come back to reality.  This is not a MLA publication (or anything resembling a research publication).  This is a public support board -- a chat room if you like.  MLA rules don't apply. I was trying to be helpful and provided links and quotes to those asking for info. Not every one has the time or computer saavy to do the google searches- there was no intent on my part to claim what was written was my work -- hence no plagiarism (if indeed such a concept applies to a Board Forum). Quit playing the Board parlimentarian.

I've already said I would follow medhelps wishes in this matter.
