We sense that you are upset. If you could explain to us what is going on, maybe someone can help you.

Hi! Bill, I am sorry for whatever you are going through, but unresolved anger s not good for your heart, nor has it ever solved a problem. If we can, members really would like to support you if you will let us. I am on my second ICD, Boston Scientific, and I am 100% satisfied with both the product and the company. There are so many things that enter into the care of those of us that are heart patients. We usually find it is not the actual device but the surgery/surgeon, settings, medication(s), etc.. Once again, there are experienced heart patients here for you. Hopeful Heart

You help no one if you don't tell us what is going wrong.

We are here to help, not just act as a location for venting. There may be someone else w/ a similar problem.

I AM SORRY FOR BEING SO UPSET WITH MY DEVICE & MY EXPOSED FEELINGS . MY PROBLEM I KNOW IS WITHIN MY DEVICE ... NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY LIFESTYLE OR MEDICATIONS ... MY HEART RACES AT 95 BPM WHILE I AM LAYING DOWN GASPING FOR AIR , WHENEVER I DO HAVE AN EPISODE IT HAS GOT STUCK WITH A BUZZING IN MY CHEST HEATING UP & CAUSING ME TO TAKE A FALL & THEN WAKING UP ON THE GARAGE FLOOR , OUTSIDE IN THE SNOW & ALONE AT HOME . I HAVE SPOKEN TO GOD 3 TIMES SO FAR & HAVE NO FEAR OF PASSING INTO THE NEW WORLD BUT I DO PRAY THAT SOMEONE WILL AT LEAST SPEAK TO ME . I HAVE NO INSURANCE < MY FAMILY HAS PAID TO HAVE MY DEVICE CALIBRATED & THE DOCTOR HAS NO RECORDS, I HAVE CALLED THE # ON MY CARD & GET A RECORDING TO LEAVE A MESSAGE

thinking of you

Hi! Bill, Please go to your cardiologist as a work in patient today. Your symptoms need to be evaluated today. Also, there are ERs that take patients with no insurance. I am so glad you are asking for help, and I am sorry for what you are going through. Please let us know how you art doing. Hopeful Heart
