OMG.. i can’t believe that a cardiologist has never heard of Barostim! They must not be up on the latest improvements or devices out there..
kind of scary!

I had one implanted in August, no changes yet unfortunately, I go once a month to the device clinic to have the power setting incrementally increased, couple more months to go

I asked my Cardiologist about it and he said I didn’t need it yet but then he put in biventricular defibrillator and pacemaker! He said that would do the trick for now and it has!

I read up on the barostim i saw it advertised on facebook. i looked it up and thought it would be perfect for me, however when i asked both my cardioligist and kidney doctor neither had heard of it, and didnt know if it was going to help me, my cardio doctor told me i would have to find a doctor to do it and he wasnt one of them, i also
have a better efraction rate than 34% since November its gone to 55% which is really good however i still feel sic everyday and no one knows why.
