Hi all-
I saw Dr. Natale on Weds. of last week and he was great. I guess final arrythmia thoughts at this point are boh typical and atypical flutter. He was very hopeful and was going to set me up withone of his assoc. to do my ablations but after getting my EKG and reviewing a little more he has decided he wants to do this himself with help from Dr. Schwiegart also, so by the time they can both get together my EPS procedure will be Sept. 4th- I think. I will drop a quick line when I find out for sure date and time.
Then on Thurs. I had a telephone pacer check and had to go right back up there again, because I was having significant and very frequent pauses where my pacer should have been working, but it wasn't. The nurses were lost and had to get the pacer rep out to CCF. One good thing they told me was if it wasn't for my pacer my heart rate would be 130-150+ at all times, but my pacer will only allow a certain # of beats to go through without me going into a safe type of block so they maxed out my upper rate and did a few other things and 3 almost 4 hours later wew were back on our way home again, hoping to not have to return til Ablation day!!! I can't wait and once again thank all for their prayers and thoughts throughout this rather rough time.
Love, Support, & Prayers to all of You-
-Kristine
