More - from Mom

We saw Dr. Shear yesterday, who was pleased with the way Dad's surgery has healed up. But when Dad complained about just not feeling well, he called Dr. Maff--Dad's internist--and asked him to work him in. So we saw Dr. Maff this morning. I mentioned that Dad's pulse had been 58 last night, and it was 116 this morning, so he did an electrocardiogram which showed Dad's heart is out of rhythm. He had his secretary schedule a holder monitor for Friday, and an echocardiogram for Monday. He then told us to see Dr. Sher, the cardiologist, sooner rather than later, and gave me a copy of the electrocardiogram to take to him. He will only be in his Reisterstown office this week, so we managed to get an appointment there for tomorrow afternoon.

I am really upset that the pacemaker doesn't seem to be doing its thing! I want to call the doctor who implanted it, but Dad says to wait until he sees Dr. Sher.
