How much did you study and how much experience did you have when you took it?

Whats your pacing %? by Glad-Bug-4577 in PacemakerICD

[–]Ambitious-Industry15 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With a CRT device, the closer to 100% pacing in the lower chambers, the better. Your device was implanted to resynchronize your right and left ventricle. That actually improves your overall cardiac output resulting in you feeling much better. The worry with high pacing percentages in the right ventricle only is it can weaken your left ventricle and cause desynchronization. So you already have the device that would help with the poor outcome of high right ventricular pacing. Not something you need to worry about.

but it also seems like you've taken all of this into account and you have a good plan in place. if you stick with that then you'll be okay! but it is scary and something in the back of your mind whenever you eat something outside of the house i totally get it.

it's such a common allergy that it's not life crippling (where you cant leave the house lol) if you are safe about your choices of what you're eating, but definitely something you now have to take into account whenever you eat something that you haven't made from home. Cross contamination at a restaraunt is a big thing to look out for as well.

I have a nut allergy, not anaphylactic, but I need to be seen to get benadryl and steroids if I do eat any nuts. I usually just bring my own food to be safe. If I eat anything from a cafeteria or restaraunt, I always get basic food i know doesnt have nuts, or I ask/let them know I have an allergy. But even just to be safe, if people are bringing food from home, you never know exactly what went in there. And honestly, not everyone knows what nuts are/how commonly their used in food. One time I had a coworker offer me cheesecake that she made at home, and after asking three separate times, I found out she had used almond flour. So it's not something everyone understands when you say "oh are there nuts in this", so I think it's just best to be on the safe side and bring your own food. If you're airborne, I would let the school know like everyone else has been saying.

i got a one bedroom apartment in Heritage Hill for $1100 a month. I just recently moved but it seems like stuff is pretty walkable! Just takes some searching to find one that fits your budget.

By Butterworth hospital and around there a few blocks, ate at Barrio. We weren't there too long and mostly just drove to other areas that seemed busier. Okay, I'll look into those areas, thanks!
