I had a defib. installed on 04, and I feel like I am on my own to figure out how to live with it, ie. what can Ipick up weight wise, what affect do my emotions , fear, have on this machine to go off. I am an emotional person with a great careing attitude for many topics and people , iy seems that when I get overinvolved with emotions my heart does not like it, powerfull beats will start occuring and even the shock might hit me. since I have had the devise it has gone off 5 times with some similar prior evenys. I feel aone in this new way of life, I don" feel secure and need some other people to speak with. I hope you can help???????

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

The machine cannot be affected by emotion!
It is the man, who emotes!

Looking at it optimistically, are you not better than others? – You are more secure / you have a protective device, while others don’t!
Psychological assessment and assistance can be of help.

Just get the devise checked by your cardiologist / and then – ignore it!
The treating doctor can suggest better - based on his assessment of the situation.

Take care     
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
