In a Heartbeat III
Update: My dad has switched cardiologists. He just felt he needed a second opinion, and after everything he's been through, he still wasn't feeling better. The new doctor took him off several meds, since the side effects are often worse than what they are treating. He also said he didn't even need a pacemaker, and deactivated it!
My dad and stepmom are thinking about contacting a lawyer. Their previous doctor has evidently done this (put pacemakers in for no apparent reason) to lots of patients.
Anyway, Dad is feeling better now than he has in a long time, so that's good. He just feels like he lost the last several years of his life, since he felt lousy and was scared to leave town. He even quit teaching. It's just a shame.
