concerned

Greetings to all.
Certainly there is a lot to be thankfull for this thanksgiving weekend,and if I may be so forward ,that goes for many of us pacemaker /defib or shall we say peacemaker wearers.
To come to the point I had a St Judes latest model implanted 4 weeks ago.All went very well no problems
The reason my effusion ratio I guess they call it is 25,had a bypass and mitral valve done 15 years ago.
Than out of nowhere had a cardiac arrest 3 m ago however they revived me so to say .All my faculties are intact a smile is due here.
To not have another episode my doc said an pacemaker /defib is the way to go.
So now with a 3.125 x 2 a day coreq here I go.
.I am an anxious person by nature also very curious.
I am starting to feel a bit more normal.
O,yes I also take 20 mg of Lasix as I had a small amount of fluid on my lungs.
My shortness of breath also brought on sometime by my anxiety seems controlled or gone.
The reason for my posting is to get feedback from other persons in similar position
thanks in advance walter the flying Dutchman

I do appreciate your comments.
Another question,I was given to understand that coreq can /will help with the refraction ratio.It does this by shrinking the heart.Am I correct?
On another theme
In Germany they do stem cell implants did you hear about this,or anyone.
If it works it is short of a miracle.They have similar cases like mine treated with success.Anyway I am sending them all my info lets see what happens.just another avenue to explore.
looking forward to more comments

You know you're wired when...

You can finally prove that you have a heart.
