Is your Monday appointment with a Electro Physiologist (EP). That is the specialist that works on the electrical system and I believe do ablation procedures..and other catheter work.
I do not have specific knowledge of tilt table procedures, but given you family history and the heart stop you experienced on the tilt table it may be that you need some type of heart monitor device: a defibrillator or pace maker. This is something I would want to get specific recommendations on from the EP.
Thank you for the reply. He could be an EP, my cardiologist referred to him as an Electro-Cardiologist, I'm not sure if there is a difference or not. It seems the more research I do, the more it looks like I'm in for a pacemaker, which at this point, I'm okay with. I was told that I had malfunctioning pacemaker and that's what caused the two upper chamber to stop functioning. Monday can't come soon enough - sometimes I think the waiting is worse than the actual procedure would be. Thank you again for the reply - I'll keep you posted. Have a great day ! ! !
