My 56 year old husband had an ICD/PACEMAKER put in on 8/4/10. I found this site while googling for some information. I'm glad I found this!

  • Swollen knee by Gretta

    Hi Jenkay, How is your husband doing back to work? My husband is scheduled to go back this monday 9/13/10. He also does physical labor. We are hoping all goes ok.

    My husband had a knee problem just BEFORE the heart issue. They found that he had a torn meniscus in his knee. Well that never got resolved because the heart became the priority of course.

    Actually, it doesn't seem to bother him anymore. But we'll see when he goes back to work. However, he still has that 'gout thing' going on in his big toe. Ya know what they say.....'you can lead an ass to the doctors......... :)

    Take care!

  • Flue Shots or No Shots by Gretta

    I also believe that my body should fight the flu on it's own. I grew up with the flu and it is nothing new.

    We stayed in bed, took asprin every 4 hours and drank a lot of liquids. This usually lasted about 1 week.

    Kids and adults did the same thing. But that's ME! For my husband, he should get one.:)
