Carl,
First, let me say I have never personally felt there was a "hidden
agenda" coming from the "other" site. I did buy Han's book, & do
feel it has true value. Everything else is just as free as this board.
I certainly haven't felt obligated to buy anything else. As far as
the afib report is concerned, no one is required to buy it to use
the board.You said, "Anyone who thinks surgical/catheter procedures are
only "treating the symptoms and not the root cause"(errant
electrical pathways, which MUST be eliminated for a "cure") has
their head in the sand, and is probably hoping that someone is
going to wave a magic wand and they will be rid of afib."My understanding is the electrical currents which cause AF are
blocked by scar tissue from the maze or PVI procedure which then
in turn "eliminates" the pathway, stopping AF. Wouldn't the root
cause of those aberrant currents still be there? Are you saying
the root cause IS the errant electrical pathway? If you are, what
causes the errant electricity? I have never been looking for a
magic wand, just a better understanding, and as far as my head
being in the sand, well.....Jim
