Thanks Curmugden. It's been a few days now and it's getting smaller. I think it's gonna clear up. Seems like my glasses stuck my eye that day when one of the kids was putting them back on my face but it wasn't like they jabbed my eye, just sort of grazed it a little and I know that every knick and cut I've had since the treatment has ...

This is more of a question about Warfarin, Plavix, blood thinning treatment ect... I was swimming yesterday with my kids and was rubbing my eyes a good bit. Afterwards my wife noticed my left eye was bleeding, not pouring blood but there is blood in the white part of my eye. Doesn't hurt or bother me it's just a nice size blood spot. I've been ...

ARRRRRGH!!!! I"M 2 DAYS OUT FROM HAVING ONE OF THESE GODLESS PEICES OF CRAP PUT IN ME!!!! Who else here had heart flutter during EP study? They say I'm in grey area. I'm holding at 35% EF right now and am at risk for sudden death because they made my heart flutter during EP study and because my left muscle has some damage that they don't t...

That is good stuff, especially the noticeable part after swelling. You have been a God send here Lisa. Thank you. I couldn't have gotten my mind around it without your help.

Does your profile name reflect your having heart flutter? My Cardiologist said yesterday that is my problem and the reason my heart stopped during EP study and I had to be revived. I made a journal entry concerning that meeting. To long to repeat all here but your choice of handle I see up there interests me in connecting with you. Apparently my left side was...

Right on. I see my regular cardiologist tomorrow. Yes I will be getting my transcripts for sure. I'm pretty anxious to see how much my cardiologists followed up with the dr. who did the EP. I can only conclude that I have scar tissue from the left muscle being damaged form the lack of blood flow during the blockage. After researching everything I can, th...

Oh yeah, no an ICD can't improve your EF so I was informed. When I was originally contacted by a nurse she was mentioning that it could. Later I was told that she was mistaken unless she was talking about an ICD/Pacer. But the dr I was seeing wasn't really suggesting that for me.

Thanks, I will check out the support group site and look for some info, also will try and find a person around here who has one to see what they have to say. You didn't see me say I had an arrhythmia problem because there has never been any signs or symptoms pointing to me having those types of electrical problems. From what I can gather, my regular card...

Yeah I have my regular cardiologist card on me and always refer to him in any case. The case of St Jude's kickbacks were easy to locate. I was simply googleing the product and the DOJ case popped up right away, and, it showed up on several sights and case studies. I've saved the links and copied the references to they're investigation and fines...

No I didn't allow the device to be implanted on the day of the EP study. Yes our cases are somewhat different but what your saying is still helpful. Your case is helpful as well. I don't have a device but I'm certainly being intimidated to have one. Here's something that occurred to me today. When discussing the evaluation appointment wit...
