Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I met with the doctor who will perform my lead retrieval next week. He has done 700 such procedures, and has a special team he works with, which includes a surgeon and an anesthesiologist, plus various technicians and nurses. I feel I will be in good hands. He didn't minimize the risks, spoke candidly and clearly, and wanted to know my concerns. Since the device did me so much good...taking my ejection fraction from 22 to 43...we decided to retrieve the leads. Much thanks to everyone who responded to my original post.
