You know you're wired when...
You have a high-tech ticker.

The experience of having a couple of lengths of wire fed into your heart muscle and an electronic 'box' tucked under the skin is not an insignificant event, but you will survive.

it's quite common for those of us with defibrillators to enjoy "episodes" or Jesus Jolts and not be aware, whether we are asleep or unconscious, it happens. Congratulations your device saved you exactly like it's supposed to, that's why they put it in your chest. Your doctor is obviously aware of the Jesus Jolt and didn't feel there was any need for you to get it checked so what would be the point of running to the hospital? Stop worrying and be thankful you were asleep when it happened and welcome to the Zapper Club.
