pacemaker

Avatar f tn The world is warming and the climate is changing. Although many want to prevent these shifts by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases that trap heat from the sun, some controversially suggest deliberating manipulating the planet's climate with large-scale engineering projects, commonly called geoengineering." Interesting. Seems a bit risky but it gives one hope..
Avatar n tn I ended up having every type of SVT except Wolf H Syndrome. My cardiologist was scared he would have to put a pacemaker in at the time and wants to go back in for another ablation 3-d mapping in 3 mths. My questions are: 1. Is it normal or common to have more than one type of SVT? 2. If I ended up with a pacemaker could I have more children? 3. What would the risk of future pregnancies be with and without the pacemaker??
Avatar f tn As Kerry Emanuel, professor of atmospheric science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, explains, “Climate change is causing a greater number of intense storms. The total number of storms has remained constant, but the proportion of high-intensity events has gone steadily upward in most parts of the world. Scientific models and real-world observations both suggest that the frequency of intense storms is going up.
Avatar n tn I see you posted in heart disease section also "how safe is it getting a pace-maker put in?" As with any surgery there are some risks; (complications occur less than 1% of the time) but if you are sick enough the doctor thinks you should have a PM or ICD implanted, then heed their advice. Have you looked up PM/ICD surgery risks on the American Heart Association or googled it to see the risks?
Avatar m tn Therapy for Intermittent second degree AV Block Mobitz type I and II, is based on the presence of ischemia and the likelihood of complete block. If there is evidence, then pacemaker implantation may be considered. You will need constant follow to detect complications like ischemia and complete block. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn No, don't do the pacemaker. It is absolutely the last resort and only if he had a major complication with an ablation procedure. Get away quickly from this doctor as he is woefully incompetent. Usually sleep apnea goes with weight issues as well so controlling both will be a first step towards curing the AF.
Avatar f tn The next day I noticed my lymph nodes in my neck (just on my right side) were a tad sore but not painful to swallow. I continued to get random bouts of lightheadedness and anxiety. Also, major cottonmouth. I drink a minimum of half a gallon of water a day and eat almost a paleo diet (still allow beans and Greek yogurt). When checking myself into an urgent care clinic last night, they did quick checks and said "oh it must be vertigo" sent me with meclizine and away I went.
1301089 tn?1290666571 t think there is much doubt however, that part of it is natural climate shifts that take place every so many years. I think most agree that it is a combination of the two. But to ignore global warming and continue polluting at the rate we are, well let's just say debt won't be our childrens and grandchildrens biggest problem. This issue does have to be dealt with...we can't bury our heads in the sand about it any longer.
Avatar m tn How is cardiac microvascular disease diagnosed since typical tests only show blockages to the major arteries? This discussion is related to <a href="/posts/Heart-Disease/Pacemaker-Findings/show/718014">Pacemaker Findings</a>.
Avatar f tn I dont do that anymore after seeing an aerial view of the area. It is shark infested! I mean major! We who live here know when not to go into the water, like at dusk when the sharks feed for example. There was a guy fishing a year ago win water up to his knees and he got bit. Now I only swim where there are large groups of people! This is my worst nightmare, going out as fishfood is not cool!
Avatar f tn You can simply skip the inactive pills (usually found at the end of a 28day pack, the last week) by starting a new pack immediately at the end of the last week of ACTIVE pills. Check with your doctor before doing this, though to be sure that it is ok.
Avatar n tn ve had a pacemaker for 1,5 years, and my life is much fuller because of it. Today I worked out on an elliptical machine for 45 minutes and watched my heartrate bounce around as the pacer started anticipating my activity, and it settled in at a perfect rate. I had a great workout. Having the pacer inserted improved my quality of life tremendously, and I'm betting if you give your pacer a chance, you will find the same thing.
Avatar f tn I am only 23, i attend school and almost done with my undergrade major. In 2010, i was diagnosed with severe endometriosis, beside that i have thyroid problem, asthma, and heart condition. I just had a pacemaker implanted on january 27, 2012. Today, my dr told that treatment for my endometriosis is not working and that i will lucky if i get pregnant now. She said i should now to conceive by having the sperm implanted.
Avatar m tn Yes, they can, but first, let me ask, are you diagnosed with tachy/brady-syndrome, or do you assume that from the major increase in heart rate when standing up, etc? Orthostatic tachycardia/hypotension is usually caused by an autonomic dysfunction/dysregulation, as you mentioned. Tachy/brady-syndrome is also known as sinus node dysfunction or "sick sinus" syndrome, and may have two causes; 1) dysfunctions in autonomic input on the sinus node, or 2) diseases in the sinus node itself.
Avatar f tn I had a pacemaker placed 4 months ago. Since then, I have a lot of pain and burning sensation in and around the area of the pacemaker. It feels like someone's holding a hot match against my skin in one particular area. I have sick sinus and tachybrady. I take atenolol, digoxin and have the pacemaker. I was dropping down as low as the low 30s freguently. I pace 22% of the time. Could there be a lead broken or what would cause the pain and burning?
1411632 tn?1281642993 Yes, I am a healthy active adult with no major health issues. My pacemaker does not pace, it triggers only if I go below 50 beats. Also, a few days after implantation I ended back in the hospital. he ventricular lead had unhooked and poked the membrane wall. They had to do a pericardial window to remove fluid from my heart. I am all healed from all of that but again have the tachycardia. My 1st cardiologist said I would just have to stay on beta blockers from now on.
163305 tn?1333668571 By Michel Chossudovsky - Professor of Economics, University of Ottawa and TFF associate, author of The Globalization of Poverty, second edition, Common Courage Press The important debate on global warming under UN auspices provides but a partial picture of climate change; in addition to the devastating impacts of greenhouse gas emissions on the ozone layer, the World's climate can now be modified as part of a new generation of sophisticated "non-lethal weapons.
Avatar n tn what might the treatments and tests be for this condition? (excluding cardiac catheterizations). can you please be more specific as to what one might expect to go through in order to bring this condition under control. Also, is small fainting spells a part of this? This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/868585'>What is hypokinesis?</a>.
679744 tn?1226618915 I had a pacemaker implanted in June of 2001 for a disease called Sick Sinus Syndrome. The pacemaker took care of all the issues I was going through at first, but over the past few years the symptoms are returning. The PVC's are becoming extreme. I have started passing out again, and I feel exhausted. I am 31 years old, and I am really getting concerned. My father died at age 32 from a massive heart attack, and my mother has the same condition I have been diagnosed with.
Avatar n tn Now they tell me that she has a Supraventricular Tachyarrythmia and it is either in conjunction with or is the cause of Sinus Bradychardia and that she has SSS. I don't really know what it all means and I feel lost. I am scared for my daughter. I want to know exactly what we are dealing with and what we can do to make this better. They tell me there is no cure but that there is treatment. That treatment may include a Pacemaker (PM). How invasive is this surgery?
Avatar f tn We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations. Some may still deny the overwhelming judgment of science, but none can avoid the devastating impact of raging fires, and crippling drought, and more powerful storms. The path towards sustainable energy sources will be long and sometimes difficult. But America cannot resist this transition; we must lead it.
148588 tn?1465778809 s Obvious to me we are hurting our planet and are affecting Climate Change but I am not buying the entire package. We have far too much evidence of Climate Changes long before we had Industrial Plants, Automobiles, Fertilizers, etc. Again, don’t take this as if I’m denying our effect on the planet. I will say I have very little respect for Al Gore.
Avatar m tn Fainting, near fainting, dizziness, lack of energy, fatigue, shortness of breath and exercise intolerance. Extreme slowing or complete stopping of the heartbeat can be fatal. In other cases, people may have no symptoms but are at high risk for dangerously slow heart rates because of disturbances of the electrical system of the heart. A pacemaker may be recommended for these people before symptoms occur. There are no electrical disturbance shown with your post?!
