Time off for my new "hardware"...

Well, I have been "upgraded" with the addition of my implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). The capable staff at the Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center gave me a wonderful experience and hopefully a more reliable rhythm. Everything was as expected, with some very minor incidents which were not quite enough to be called complications. The pain was much worse than I had ever imagined, though, and I will be taking some time off to get some rest and try to get acclimated to this "new" part.

Anyway, I'll be in touch.
