Default Successful Pacemaker surgery

I had pacemaker surgery yesterday afternoon. Surgery went well, and I'm now home, after an overnight stay in the hospital. My heart is now regulated to a low heart rate of 60 beats per minute. The high rate is now regulated with Verapimil, a bp med I took for many years. Surgery went well, and the worst problem I experienced during the brief hospital stay was the uncomfortable hospital bed. I'm feeling fine, just feel like I have a large bruise on my chest where the pacemaker was implanted. Many of you wrote to my announcement the other day, so I wanted you guys to know I'm OK. DAVE

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Thanks for letting us know! I agree, the hardest part of being in the hospital is the beds, I do honestly believe they are made by sadists!! Glad you will be feeling better!!
