I now got an ICD

Post by Yami »

Hey guys.

Well some of you are wondering what happen to me for the past few days. Well I
went up to a doctor to do a heart chacerization (I hope I spell that right) to
see if I got any blockage to my heart. The good news was there was no blockage
but the bad news was my heart was beating so irregularity that they have to put
in this like pacemaker deal called an ICD. It's not REALLY like a pacemaker it's
just a little device that suppose to help my heart keep up a nice safe beating.
Now I know that this will help to keep me from getting dizziness, fainting,
stroke, and keep me from dying from doing too much work-out or activity...but
still this is like a big blow to me. I mean here I am in my early thrities and I
have to live with this thing for my life? I feel like life is not being fair to
me. What did I do to deserve this? But my Doctors and my Dad and Aunt told me
that I have done nothing wrong it was just a bad case of bad luck when I caught
that one broncitius and it messed up my heart system. I know that within a few
weeks I can use my left arm to do more activities and I can resume my normal
lifestyle...but knowing that I still have this thing in me is still going to
take some time getting use to.

So sorry to hear that man. Still it's good to know they were able to do something for you. Taking that perspective might make the change more bearable.

You guys are right, I should be glad they caught it early before things could have been worse for me.
