 Posted: 07/29/03 - 17:40 Post subject: I'm Getting an Implant
A defibrillator that is. Its scheduled for next Wednesday morning. I will be in the hospital over night. This is a precautionary move being done by the doctors, just in case. Given my condition and family history the doctor's decided to do the procedure.
Here is basically what it is http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=11227
Here is the guy that is doing the procdure, http://www.casep.com/esberg.html
I have seen almost all the doctors in this practice at one time or the other. Dr. Blannett is my regular guy.

Whew!! For a minute there I thought you were finally bending to all that spam email pressure 
I think, as I told you earlier, that you're making the right call. Hopefully this will give you some peace of mind at least. Fingers crossed.....
