Replacement

Thank you πŸ™πŸ» Penguin and Piglet 22 for your reply's πŸ™πŸ»

Piglet22....your experience leaves me feeling disappointed with Medical fraternity past and present πŸ’ 

I leave in Australia and I  feel lucky that this things {medical} are the best you can hope for in this volatile state of humanity! I was born in Slovenia....came here when I  was 20🌼

My "event" occurred in 2016 basically out of the blue. Unfortunately I was on the small foldable  bicycle so I sustained moderate head injury in the process. No prior history of ♥️ issues and we were {my husband} about 1 hour away from hospitals. I have no memory of the event and it took 2 hours before reaching the hospital {apparently they have to "work" on me. While in the hospital  my heart suddenly stopped beating and this is how my Pacemaker came to be....diagnosis: Ventricular standstill and Bradycardia! To this day I still think  πŸ€” that all that happened on that day {10/04/2016} was a blessing in disguise πŸ™πŸ» Life goes on un-interrupted 😍...however  I lots my taste πŸ‘… and smell due to my head injuries. Being pragmatist I don't dwell on it....at least I can remember how thing's use to tasteπŸ€— ....I  don't have home monitor or have any medications....this far⁉️ my next appointment is in early Dec and plan to start the "debate" around this with Cardiologist .

Piglet22 I hope and wish your future procedures go well😌 Life is always changing, hopefully we can change equally fast with it!? Not an easy task πŸŒžπŸ’œ or possibility....but HOPE must stay with usπŸ’œ

Your ICD has a better memory than you.
