Good News from the Doc!

It looks like the problem with my lead corrected itself.  Dr. Val in his best American/Chilean said that my heart was angry, but now the leads have found a home.  Evidently, the heart doesn't like foreign objects being inserted into them.  They rebel and get inflamed and try to cause the lead to back out.  It just took a while for the heart to settle down and accept that this is pretty much a permanent arrangement. That little adventure used up a little over a year of my battery life, but all in all, that's not a huge deal.  Right now they're projecting 7 years or so before I'd need a new pacemaker.  Somehow that sounds a long way away.  A lot longer than, "Hey, next month we're going to extract your lead and start over again."  I can live with that...pun intended.
