Hi and yes quite the list. I too had many of those same issues
But that's the beauty of modern medicine. I had a pretty great life with the 10 years I had a pacemaker with difibulator. A few episodes where I needed it's help to restart my rhythm but thankful it was there to do so.
Have they scheduled you for an evaluation at Mayo Phoenix yet? That's where I had my evaluation with a great team of Doctors. I like Mayo's approach of a team effort. I still see the same team now 5 years post transplant. Let me know when you go and if I can be of any help with knowledge of the process I can help. It typically takes a few days of testing and you'll meet a full range of medical and even emotional and even spiritual people if you want some help there also.

Omy thank you yes . It stinks because I have a list of other problems besides heart issues. I one thing is fixed then maybe the other things will be better . My dr is slow but I just went through right and left cath the end of April. And I have had 2 ablations and dr changed me to ranolazine because I was taking too many nitro. When they do all these tests do they keep ya in the hospital?
