I also looked up the complications that can arise but it's a long complicated article that deals with many types of implants. It is in the Journal of Atrial Fibrillation, I believe. When I read it more carefully I can give more information. But you can google complications of Watchman Device implants and probably find it.]]> robby1939 GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Wed, 02 May 2018 17:00:59 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161833#msg-161833 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161833#msg-161833
I have had afib since 2007 when I had the pacemaker implant. I am currently pacing 100% of the time as per my last checkup. At the time no one suggested an ablation to me. Wonder why.

Regarding post implant of the Watchman my doctor said Plavix and aspirin until the heart tissue had completely grown around the implant and then no medication necessary. But I read online that some people still had to take Warfarin. So, it's an individual outcome.

I agree, going through the procedure only to find out that you still had to take warfarin or some other blood thinner would be disappointing. That's why I am waiting for more history and the information he brings back from the seminar in June.]]> robby1939 GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Mon, 30 Apr 2018 21:17:18 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161805#msg-161805 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161805#msg-161805 Also, does the post treatment have to be Plavix and Aspirin? One can't continue on half-dose Eliquis?

That would be a bummer to go through the implant and still be on those chemicals.

When you say, "had AF for a long time".... what's a long time? Over 8 - 10 years? More?

And, with a Watchman... have you read or heard about the type of material the device is made out of? Metal? Like Titanium? Any history of rejection in those sensitive to certain metals or materials?

Thanks!

Devices change and are improved as does the procedure so I'll see what he says. There is a period after the implant is done when you take Plavix and aspirin and then you can go off blood thinners. At least most people can. Some just continue with blood thinners. Not too encouraging. I asked again about ablation and he said I have had afib for a long time and it would most likely not be effective. He had my latest pacemaker check and said I was pacing about 100% of the time and the device seemed unaffected by my PEMF mat. He seemed to know more about it this time and said just to keep it away from my pm. Also had the results of my lates echo test which were good for the most part and nothing needed to be done.]]> robby1939 GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Sat, 28 Apr 2018 15:05:25 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161541#msg-161541 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161541#msg-161541

When I had my pacemaker unit replaced due to the battery life coming to an end the surgeon told me that he did all kinds of ablations and he said he would not recommend one to me. I didn't pursue his statement with him. Maybe it was my age, weight or that he didn't think it would be necessary at this point in life. My cardiologist recommended a Watchman Device that blocks the left atria so clots don't form and I could get off Warfarin and just take aspirin therapy. But after doing my own research I found that some prominent cardiologist said "DON'T DO IT!" So, I told my doctor and he didn't question it.]]> robby1939 GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Tue, 17 Apr 2018 22:00:13 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161512#msg-161512 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161512#msg-161512

Liz,
You ask a good question about the device and AF. While I waiting to pursue ablation surgery, I am going to use my machine for arrhythmia. It takes 40 minutes a day. If I see what I think are any changes (positive or negative), I will post it. Thanks for the little wake-up.
Bill

Liz,
I have been neglectful. I was not able to follow a good treatment schedule with the machine. So, the question is still open but hopefully closed for me. I have decided to bite the bullet and will be going in for ablation next week. However, another test is underway for the machine. My brother severely fractured his ankle. He underwent surgery and had 5 pins and a plate inserted. He also has a machine and will provide a good test for the machine's "fracture" and "wound healing" therapy.

Thanks, Bill. I am aware of the book PEMF The 5th Element. It looks like a long read and there were a lot of negative comments about it concerning contradictions but I'm sure there's a lot of good information there too.

Robby, glad to hear about the positive results you are getting from your PEMF machine. I too have had very similar results. Also a friend of mine has seen his A1C go from 6.7 to 6.4 from using a PEMF machine. He also had surgery to remove cancer between his eye and his nose and his doctor was very surprised at how fast the surgery healed.

I didn't really see any contradictions in the PEMF The 5th Element book. Its rating on Amazon is 4 1/2 stars out of 5 with 211 reviews. Most of the negative comments are because the author is biased towards the PEMF machine he also sells. However, the information about PEMF is very informative and he did a good job of pulling it all together.

Wishing you good health.]]> BeachBill GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Fri, 13 Apr 2018 18:38:28 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161400#msg-161400 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161400#msg-161400
Two other small benefits I've noticed since starting PEMF therapy is the almost complete elimination of a large cyst on the back of my neck and the cessation of a nerve twitching near my right eye. My balance has improved to the point that I don't need my cane anymore but I take it with me when I go out and just carry it for insurance. My echo and EKG came back normal and my pulse rate is unchanged since beginning the therapy. Numbness and walking pain persists but is slowly improving. It's been about a month since I started this.]]> robby1939 GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Thu, 12 Apr 2018 20:27:41 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161296#msg-161296 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161296#msg-161296

I just wanted to clarify that I am using the OMI PEMF therapy mat. The Earth Pulse is a different device that I am considering. Also, I'm reading about grounding sheets, wrist bands, etc. This is an interesting area too explore.

Keep in mind (OMI vs Earth Pulse vs ?) that PEMF machines differ in several different ways but they all have one basic goal. Deliver the PEMF signal to your body that will obtain the best results. You may want to read PEMF The 5th Element of Health by Bryant A Meyers if you have not already done so. It explains electromagnetic force fields as they relate to the body very well. Also, Dr. Sinatra covers grounding pretty well in his book about natural ways to keep your heart healthy.]]> BeachBill GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Sat, 07 Apr 2018 18:29:59 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161293#msg-161293 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161293#msg-161293 robby1939 GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Sat, 07 Apr 2018 17:36:42 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161270#msg-161270 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161270#msg-161270 robby1939 GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Thu, 05 Apr 2018 19:39:08 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161258#msg-161258 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,161258#msg-161258

I also had my annual echo heart exam and haven't had a call back from the doctor. I will be seeing him in a couple of weeks and he usually calls with results. I'm surprised that he hasn't called yet but I'm assuming everything is OK.

Other than that I have had many noticeable health improvements. More energy, less neuropathy pain and numbness, better balance (just carry a cane for insurance but don't really use it), better digestion, better sleep, better moods and generally continued improvement in many areas.

I experimented with several different settings but finally settled on 10 Hz setting for 11 minutes twice a day and then 2 Hz for 11 minutes before bedtiime for nerve regeneration and sleep problems. 10 Hz with a square wave pattern is what NASA used on the astronauts. There is also a recommended setting for arrythmia at 8 Hz but I haven't tried that yet.

Overall I feel this has been a good investment for me. I saw my Network Chiropractor today and he said my spine was relaxed enough that I could start seeing him every two weeks. I started at 3 times a week and have gotten down to once a week and will probably discontinue after my current series of prepaid visits is finished. I'm also looking into another machine that has more incremental settings and can be put under your mattress, pillow or even under the bed and used all night for improved sleep and other things. Dr. Pawluk has a video on this Earth Pulse device and said he uses it under his pillow at night.

I saw one of your previous posts and hope to gain similar benefits. I have neuropathy, leg pains from beta blockers and diuretics (now discontinued), lower back pain from spinal stenosis and overweight, poor circulation in extremities. And other things that come and go.

I just read the abstraction of the tests done on pemf devices that concluded that bipolar devices like mine are not affected by PEMF mats - especially the low intensity ones I am considering. So, I am contemplating just giving it a try but haven't fully convinced myself yet. Thanks for your reply.

I have compared various pemf mats and the OMI pemf mat is only about $1250 online compared to several thousand dollars for Bemer and other mats. I think it's a worthwhile investment. My concern is my weight and I wonder if anyone here is overweight and has used a pemf mat without a problem. All of these mats last about 3 years so they will have to be replaced at some point.

If there is a negative reaction, then be very aware of that once you do have your ablation procedure.

Liz:
My device does have a protocol for AF. I have not tried it. All reports I have read indicate it takes several months (6 to 12) to achieve favorable results with most problems. I don't have a lot of patience (I am working on changing this). It is for this shortcoming that I am not attacking the AF beast with chemicals. Too much like looking for a needle in a hay stack which is time consuming. When I purchased the device it was to help me with the problems I described in the post above. The good news is that it did fix these problems for me. I started noticing positive results at the onset and the results improved over time. After about 3 or 4 months I no longer had the problems and they have not returned. At that time, AF was not a problem for me. Now I am looking forward to the device helping me with my recovery from AF surgery. The device is recognized as helping with recovery from any type of injury or surgery. In addition, it is also recognized for helping mend broken bones, especially the ones that refuse to heal (can't remember what this condition is called). All in all, there are a few hundred protocol for treatment that comes with the device. Also, there is a warning not to use the device's full body mat if you have implanted electrical devices such as pacemakers without a medical doctor's approval. It is OK to use the pad and probe as long as they are not used in the area of the implanted electrical devices or the heart. Otherwise, it is a DIY and there have been no recorded instances where the device has caused harm. The reason for this is because of the low power and frequency of the magnetic fields.

Regarding the TENS device, a small current passes between each pair of electrodes. The electrode placements recommended are specific for where the pain is located. The TENS unit should be OK if the electrodes are not placed in such a manner as to put the electrical implanted device between electrodes.

I feel the need to make it perfectly clear to all who may read my posts that I have no medically training at all. I am simply a retired engineer who is curious and likes doing things for myself and enjoys researching and solving problems. So, it is up to the reader to decide how many grains of salt my opinions are worth.

I wish you nothing but success with handling your medical problem(s) and I will be happy to help in any way that I am able.]]> BeachBill GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Fri, 16 Feb 2018 02:11:46 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,160308#msg-160308 Re: PEMF treatment, does it work https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,159868,160308#msg-160308

I purchased an almag-01 it cost about $500.00 you can get it from [www.drpawluk.com]
I got it for my wife's benefit, she had terrible nerve pain down her shoulder and arm, she had it for about 4 or 5 years, taking pain meds every day, with her kidney function reducing.
I got the almag 01 on trial for 2 weeks, but after only two day, two treatments a day the pain had gone. So I purchased it, now I read that it can help Afib. See [www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov] and [www.drpawluk.com]

The only difference in the six packages is the software and accessories that are included.

I have the Professional Set. After looking at the website, if you have any questions about the product or the packages, I'll be happy to help.

P.S.
Taking into account your friends condition and the desire to control pain, a TENS unit may be the best choice to try. I also have a tens unit that I have had for about 5 or 6 years. I haven't used it since I got my PEMF device but when I did use it, it worked quite well for me relieving pain caused by injury or muscle spasms. There are a lot of different brands of TENS units available and the pricing goes from around $40 to $100+. The device is small and has electrodes you connect to the body. The placement depends on the site of the pain. The device introduces very low current at a specific frequency to the body. It stops the pain by more or less scrambling the pain signal being sent to the brain and hence the brain doesn't decode the pain signal. I mention this device because it is cheap and has a pretty good track record for essentially cancelling out pain. Of course, the down side is that it does nothing to help fix the source of the pain.
