Take care and best of luck!

Been traveling and I read this @michaeluk26. Hope the procedure went well and you’re comfortable. Praying for you, bro.

Did you get a second opinion? Know a guy that the heart doctor told him he needed a pacemaker but he got a second opinion from a more experienced heart doctor and they told him his level was not 40 or something like that and he didn't need one. The guy is doing fine 15 years later.

I always wondered about getting a second opinion. If you get a second opinion that contradicts the first opinion, how do you know which one is correct? Do you get a third opinion as the tie-breaker?

To try and inject some humor into just another obstacle for you (and I say this as someone who has health issues).......is it a fast paste maker?

This guy got a second opinion from an older doctor that had actually helped train the doctor that recommended a pacemaker. Ever since I heard that story I try and tell everyone about getting a second opinion because just because a doctor might be a specialist does not mean they are always right.

Same here! I had a normal resting heart rate, but started developing seizures in Air Traffic Control School (It's a long story, but an interesting one). But during an active seizure my HR would drop below 15bpm, which is the opposite of what normally happens. They put in an on-demand to keep my heart going whenever I seize.

I’ve been on the same seizure meds the past 7 years now and not had one. I highly recommend asking your doctor about levetricetam if you still have many or your meds aren’t countering them as often as you would like.

Good luck! Walk in the park, mine was an outpatient procedure, had mine four years in November. I have felt great.
