CRT/ICD implant

Filed under: Cardiomyopathy — admin @ 8:46 am

had a Cardiac Resynchronization device with a defibrillator put in Sept. 2004. I previously had a regular pacemaker that was implanted Feb. 2003 due to Bradycardia.

I am pretty sure that the original pacemaker was programmed incorrectly and caused my CHF. I am lucky to be alive as I went in the hospital in July 2004 with 12% EF, 2000+ BNP, failing kidneys and fluid in my lungs.
I can’t and probably won’t ever be able to prove this however.

What makes you think your pacemaker caused your CHF?
