Is there anyone that has a child with an ICD. My son turned 16 Oct 5 . He has had his ICD since he was 13. He had a ICD storm 5mos after he got his and was shocked 8 times in 19 mins. I was hoping that someone might know another child that has same problems. thanks mom

Hi Anita,

I know that there is at least one mother with three kids who all have ICDs (and the Mom, too) in the defibrillator forum at www.implantable.com.

Good luck & best wishes

I've seen many posts about people being concerned about exercise after having a device so thought I would let you know that yesterday I raced my first marathon since having my pacemaker fitted in fall 2004.
