Typically DDD pacing is for obstructions right? I've also heard that it is maybe not a good option for HCMers too. I know the NIH studies were considered flawed because of unethical practices but I do no know to what degree.
Anyhow, when I was in the hospital with my vast array of ailments the most outstanding was the continuous passing out episodes. My blood pressure was very unstable dropping to 70/30 at times. So I saw a new cardiologist who is also an EP. My old cardiologist gave up on me and fired me as a patient (funny, I thought I paid him). He told me all of this was in my head.
As an effort to keep my BP on the semi stable side he put me on 100% pacing, compression stockings, and salt tablets to keep my blood pressure above 90. Is this the right thing to be doing at this point. I had the information faxed to Dr. maron but have heard nothing as of yet. Guess I will give him a call.
