Hi Sharon,
I just read your post and was wondering how Garret is doing. You said his device went off three times but he didn't feel it. was he paced out or were they all shocks? I haven't read your story yet or why Garret got his device. I'll look it up now. Just wondering how he is doing and if the beta blockers are helping.
I have a son with a device that has gone off a few times as well. We have changed meds before and that has helped in the past. We have recently changed dosages because his device has paced him out of a couple tachy events. So far i think it is helping. hope to hear good things. How old is your son. Mine is 20 now but received his ICD at 14.
