windyshores,
No long term effects, that I know of. I was 24 then, 65 now. I have way too many medical and mental (depression/cognitive impairment), it's impossible to know which issue causes which problems with and without pain.
I've got a couple of questions:
1.Is there an actual reason why you get elect, so badly and repeatedly?
2.Do you have any "vibration" feelings, anywhere in your body?
As if you were standing on your clothes dryer while it is on? This started first only in my feet. The first time I moved to different parts of my house, no difference. I had my hubby come stand where I felt it the strongest, he felt nothing. Now it travels up from my feet thru body. It is not restless leg syndrome. Ex. I had a non-stressful outpatient surgery 2 weeks ago, in the bed, talking with the different doctors, I suddenly felt like the whole bed was strongly vibrating. I even, not so gently, abruptly interrupted the doctor and asked why is the bed vibrating? Of course he said he just bumped it. No one even believes me. I would love your opinion. Thanx, ShelleyW

I have "paresthesias"- tingling, burning numbness, in arms. Also left side of face (side I was shocked on). And I think it is possible that my afib stems from that first severe shock. No reason for the pattern, just bad luck!
