Hey I just wanted to thank everyone for the feed back on my first post after surgery. I had my list of questions for the Dr and he was awesome and sat and answered them, Frank, Cecil and Smitty you guys are awesome. I told the doctor about the weird feeling and the weird feeling I had in my chest was in fact the pacer pacing the problem was that in fact one of the leads had pulled out. So Tuesday I went back under.

Rather then being completely freaked out I felt little prepared for my first check up and even understood better what I was going back in for surgery, I now know my settings now. I was also told would probably be using the pacer less then 10% as it is just to assist on the pauses I have every so often. He even told me when all is healed I will be able to get back to everything I was doing already, yes this is the point were you guys say I told you so!!! Even though this is a setback I know I am on the right path. I am very very sore this time but its better then the alternative.
