Common Questions and Answers about Pacemaker modes ddd
pacemaker
I had an ablation procedure performed days ago for possible PSVT. I also had a pacemaker inserted. So far, I've been having episodes of tacycardia (pulses can be as high as 160 after a short walk), and facial flushing. I am taking Multaq 400 mg with Cardizem 30 mg BID. I've also been informed that another ablation procedure may need to take place due to the location of a possible ectopic node.
I wasn't expecting to feel this way after the abalation procedure.
what can i do do releive or help with my ddd. it's getting top where i can't even get dress in the mornings or lift my legs. i've been told at the age of 15 that i had this and each year it is getting worse. the pain is so unbearable at times it hurts to sit or stand,and i cry myself to sleep. i have never taken or been given any kinds of medications for this, just some physical therapy, but that doesn't seem to be working.
I just wonder if all of the above is indicative of a heart that is working too hard to properly function? Should I just go for the pacemaker, which I imagine will be a DDD pacer?? Thanks for any advice, I'm pretty nervous and anxious about this pacemaker, but I just want my life back - to walk in the park with my little girl and not have to worry about my HR tolerating the exercise. Thank you!
Saliva is not infectious.Your fears are unjustified.Learn the modes of HIV transmission and you won't be as fearful.All the best.
recently (about a month ago) i injured myself lifting something i shouldnt have, and since that day my DDD has been even worse, including loss of bowel function, difficulty urinating, loss of muscle mass in my right leg/thigh/butt and loss of feeling on the right side of my right leg/foot/butt i have a surgery date for december, which is over a month away, i read somewhere i shouldve had surgery immediately after the loss of feeling in my foot. what should i do?
also at same level I have facet arthropathy present with ventral osteophyte formation. DDD with narrowing and desiccation of C4-C5. There is a focal Central C4-C5 disc bulge. This disc bulge abuts the cervical cord. Mild facet arthropathy is precent. DDD present at the C5-C6 disc level. Annular disc bulging with osteophytic bar formation and ancinate process hypertrophy. Facet hypertrophy is also present. There is a mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing.
Both are dangerous. Both are good, short term, for non-DDD related singular disk issues. Both are bad, for DDD, or anything involving narrowing of the spinal canal. Also, manipulations can increase rate of degeneration in the vertebrae.
What's important here, is the rate of degeneration. Most likely, your NS doesn't know that now? They will watch you, and over time, get a decent judge of the rate.
Start taking steps to reduce the rate of degeneration.
I am looking to discuss DDD with other LIKE members and in search of alternative medicine to treat my pain for Severe DDD (degenerative disc disease) of neck and back.
I have DDD in my neck and was involved with a motor vehicle accident. Since then l now have a chronic burning ache pain in my lower left arm radiating down into my hand along with tingling. Wondering if the accident has made my DDD worse and brought on these sypmtoms. Have had two years of physio no relief.
s I have DDD at C3-C4 ,C6-C7 mild. C5-C6 moderate with a narrowing of the foraminal canal sever to moderate. Mild AP spinal canal stenosis at C5-C6. no evidence of edema , myelomalacia or demyelinating plaque.( DDD at L5 S1)
I have multiple smal foci of supratentorial white matter, suspicious of demyelination. 3 periventri cular lession at least 1 juxtacordial lession and a infratentorial lesion. one of them involve the posterior body of the corpus callosum extending to the callospe-septal.
My doctor diagnosed me with DDD (neck).However another diagnosed me with lupus. I have awful pain in my neck and the bottom right of my back. Any suggestions?
Hi..sorry u r going thru all the red tape....I also have DDD and cervical spinal stinosis...I do not how they r connected,but it does appear there is a connection.
Well Chiari could possibly be the cause but with your extensive surgical history it would be hard to say. Have you had an MRI? I know what DDD is but not sure what the symptoms are.
The pacemaker itself should not be a deterent from having an ablation. I've had a pacemaker for 6 years (because of an ablation actually), and then had another ablation about a year ago. Unfortunately, the ablations don't work for me, but I have IST, not SVT so hopefully they're more effective for that.
My pacemaker battery had been dead for over a year and a half, and I just now was told that the pacemaker will have to be removed because it can damage the heart if it doesn't have a battery. Is this true? Incidentally, my pacemaker had not been activated for several years, as it was set for the minimum and didn't ever have to kick in.
