Today the anxiety turned into a panic attack. I have had an MRI and no big deal. I was getting around to go and things did not feel right- panic attack stuff. Finally called about the leads still around my vagus nerve from the vagus nerve stimulator which was removed in 2010. After consulting a radiologist they called back and said absolutely NOT!! Never should I have one!! No more panic attacks. 😊. WHEW ...

@parus
Have you ever considered having the coil removed? Did you get it to treat depression or seizures and did it ever help?

@parus- I don't remember reading about you having leads around your vagus nerves. If you think that you had a panic attack then why did the radiologist say that you should never have one? I am confused, sorry.
