corina Posted March 31, 2016 Report Posted March 31, 2016 Sending good thoughts your way Ancy! I'm very hopeful the pacemaker will help you back on your feet again! Quote
SarahA33 Posted March 31, 2016 Report Posted March 31, 2016 Hi Ancy, Will be thinking of you this weekend and Tuesday. As you can see, lots of people here pulling for you to get better! How long will you be in the hospital for? Your a really strong young lady, so you just hold tight. I have hope like Corina does that this will help you, also. Quote
Guest ANCY Posted March 31, 2016 Report Posted March 31, 2016 Thank you Corina and Sarah. Thank you all for being there standing in support. I don't know how long they plan on keeping me, the nurse thought overnight at least. But cardiologist didn't give any indication, I think he wants to see how it goes. I definitely think it will help, with it bringing my heart rate up, I will not be passing out as much. At least that's what's expected. Quote
Amalia01 Posted April 1, 2016 Report Posted April 1, 2016 Ancy, I will be thinking of you. I wish you all the best and a speedy recovery. Keep in touch. Quote

toomanyproblems Posted April 4, 2016 Report Posted April 4, 2016 Good luck tomorrow. I'll be thinking of you. Quote
Guest ANCY Posted April 5, 2016 Report Posted April 5, 2016 Thank you! Unfortunately it seems to be that I don't have approval through the insurance so tommorow is canceled... ? Unless by some miracle it gets approved overnight. Hope to maybe reschedule for later this week if possible, will have to see if we can get it pushed through insurance... Quote
Katybug Posted April 5, 2016 Report Posted April 5, 2016 That's terrible! I'm so sorry! I swear if these insurance people had to live in our bodies, they wouldn't make it a day! Quote
corina Posted April 5, 2016 Report Posted April 5, 2016 I'm so sorry Ancy! Hope approval wil come through soon! Quote
Guest ANCY Posted April 5, 2016 Report Posted April 5, 2016 Well heading in to get pacemaker in the next hour. Will explain more later. Quote
Guest ANCY Posted April 6, 2016 Report Posted April 6, 2016 Explanation as promised... So insurance was not going to approve for pacemaker in time due to a mistake with the preauth. Ended up calling the cardio office and speeking with a nurse who after hearing what was going on sent me to the ER, I was passing out for longer and longer periods of time. At the ER, dr was very concerned, to the point of putting defibrillator pads on me so they would be ready with external pacing if needed prior to getting the permanent pacemaker.(there were also some weird things happening every so often on the telemetry) So he admitted me and as soon as I made it upstairs three cardiologist, including mine, came to see me in a row and then they were coming to get me for the procedure. Procedure went well with only light sedation, a big bonus! Started feeling better almost immediately, well after the meds wore off lol! Most amazing is that I have not passed out one time since it was placed! It feels so good to have a normal heart rate again! Pacemaker is set no lower than 60 and no higher than 140. I guess it will kick into action if my heart rate goes to fast and try to reset proper pacing. Amazing what new technology can do! Anyway... better get some rest! Thanks for all the prayers and weLl wishes! Quote
Amalia01 Posted April 6, 2016 Report Posted April 6, 2016 Wow, scary. I'm glad the procedure went well and that you are feeling better. Quote
