Thank you for your honesty, I watched your video a few times before having my loop recorder implanted.
I found your video would help reassure me when the anxiety set in.
I hope you're well x
Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m in the process of scheduling to have a Medtronic loop recorder implanted due to family history of significant cardiac events, personal symptoms (POTS with orthostatic hypotension, tachycardia, and possibly SVT’s), and a KCNJ2 genetic mutation that can potentially cause long QT. I’ve been using my Apple Watch + Qaly app to record EKG’s when I experience symptoms. Looking forward to having the loop recorder to help in identifying any issues and cardiac management. I love that you’ve named your devices (gotta make it fun), and I really appreciate your positive outlook in spite of all you’ve been through. Thank you!
thanks for this video, I'm 17 and getting mine tomorrow. every video i can find is about an old person so i really appreciated this one! you have definitly made me feel better about the whole thing. :)
🙏🙏👍
hi there, I’m due to get one soon I’m 18 how did it feel if you don’t mind me asking these sorts of procedures don’t usually bother me just feel a bit weird about it x
I just had mine fitted today. Nobody told me to not take ibuprofen. I was sat in an interview, where I proceed to bleed through my white shirt and get taken back to the hospital by my interviewer. If I don't get the job, they'll certainly remember me.
hey! did you get the job
@@hattielouu sadly not. I bed all over their company car. It was cream leather. 🤣😐
My Cardiologist scheduled my procedure today, thank you for sharing.
Had my loop put in last May. Almost a year now i've had it. Found out last week they'll be removing it next month, almost a full year. But found out they'll be putting in a Dual Chamber pacemaker. So my loop helped as far as me getting a diagnosis. One metal out and a new one permanently. Good luck to all!
My doctor is considering this for me to try. Thank you for your detailed experience so I know what to expect, especially as a woman!
There were 5 doctors/ nurses and they were asking me questions but I had a sheet over my face so I felt like an idiot because I didn't know if they were talking to me.Eye contact makes a big difference in conversation lol
I hope you get more answers 🤗 I have the same implant. I got mine July of last year, after a stroke. I was really bruised and tender for awhile, but now I forget it’s even there. Also, I’ve had multiple MRIs after. The easiest thing to do is to bring the Communicator box with you and the radiology techs will do a download before the test. And I still walk quickly past store metal detectors. 🤣 I’ve never set one off, as of yet. Good luck!
Nice! Good to know!
Such a good attitude
I am SO glad to hear you make the cyborg joke. That was my first thought when a loop monitor was suggested a year ago after a stroke of an unknown origin. I didn't want to be a cyborg, but I'm slowly coming around and think I will be talking to my cardiologist again.
You show your boldness with every video. I was always curious about loop recorders but my so-called doctors at the VA are not real forthcoming with information. Oh, and you don't have to worry about your injection area being "racy". You're beautiful inside and out. ☺
Thank you so much for the information! I am having one put in tomorrow and you put my mind at ease. Hope you received the answers you need. ❤
Thank you for sharing your journey. You are an inspiration. ❤🙏
I just had a loop recorder put in a week ago.Your description of the procedure was very similar to mine. The pressure was pretty intense when they injected it in and the stitches did feel weird
Thank you for this video. I am getting a loop recorder installed in 2 weeks.
There's nothing wrong with being a nerd thank you for your video I appreciate it
Thank you Lynnea, I hope your well and wondering how your thumper is doing? Your video is helpful but I am really anxious and scared to follow through. I am scheduled for one soon.
Lynnea you’re the best! New sub here. My wife was a nurse her father a doctor. Both gone now. She had MS from age 39 to 55. I know she would ask you if you have tried weed when you feel an episode coming on. He was a researcher in medical science. He predicted the gut microbiome but didn’t live to see the amazing research going on today. Poo swapping is becoming a remedy. He would have suggested you and others like you obtain samples from healthy individuals and by enema upgrade your own gut microbiome. This is new cutting edge stuff and too soon to expect your doctor to prescribe it. Just a thought. Were my wife still alive today I know she would have tried it. One it can’t hurt. And two it just might cure. Good luck 🍀 to you Lynnea.
I have a close family member with MS, and I'm sorry for your loss. She was a lucky woman to have had someone like you beside her to get her through the hard days. Although I am open to marijuana use, I work in a field where I am randomly drug tested and although it is legal in my state, it is not legal to use within the medical field when you are part of patient care. I definitely feel that the gut plays a big part in your health and wellbeing, and I actually have an appointment with a GI doctor to go over some concerns I have with my bloodwork, so I am going to cross my fingers. Thank you for your support!
You’re welcome Lynnea! I risked a twenty year mandatory prison sentence getting my wife the cannabis she needed those sixteen years. Rockefeller’s Laws! Your friend at least doesn’t have to do that. The weed replaces the prescribed antispasmodic Baclofen. Baclofen takes away any strength left after ms takes the most of it. Also the weed will let her laugh when nothing is funny. And give her appetite and let her sleep. When she gets what my wife called the ooglies aka upset tummy then she needs to have her potassium dose reduced. Good luck 🍀 to you both! 💕
How does it look after inserted? is it noticeable? I am thinking for having it done.
Thanks for the video, I
Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated. Love the Borg analogy :) I do similar things.
Hi, does it ever get better sleeping with this device in? I’m post op day 3, when I try and sleep on my right side the device pokes outwards, I can see it on my skin, very gross. Does it settle into a position where it doesn’t poke out?
Thanks
Im going to have mine implant on july 6.. thanks for the information i was scared but now not anymore...
I am soooo glad I’m not the only one who names my monitors! Lmao
Thank you! I had the implant in Nov. How are you doing?
what exactly do you have? I am waiting to be seen to get the implant and I'm super anxious and scared.
Hi, I have also just had a loop recorder fitted. Can I ask what your symptoms were and what the loop recorder found. Mine is only 5 days old.
Hey. How are you doing now ? I hope your in great health. I was wandering how long did it take you to recover and did the loop really help in further diagnosing your condition. Thanks in advance and keep up the good spirit !
I am doing great, healthier than I've been in almost ten years. In regards to the recovery process for the implantation I don't remember being in pain very long. The tissue there is vascular so you heal up quick. More sore than anything. Ultimately it didn't farther my diagnosis, but that was only because the conductive issues I was having with my heart was not something the device was geared for. Having said this, the loop can be extremely helpful in diagnosing other issues and I don't regret having one during the time that I did have it. I had it removed in 2021 after my symptoms subsided.
Sorry I am new to you and not sure what exactly you have could you share?
can people still workout/play sports with it?
did you go alone or did you have someone alongside for support?
❤️❤️❤️
She made me more scared than ever, now I'm going refuse the implant cause I'm to scared.
Request sedation
Does any heart patient have the implant loop recorder replaced every 3 years
I just had mine put in a week ago, but good question.I'm hoping for a diagnosis within weeks,months hopefully not years.
