Don, no I have not had anything like this. My angiogram is this morning, so I should find out something. I hope this new technology works for you. I'm wondering why all the tests? Can't they do an angioplasty/stent, or even bypass surgery to correct the problem? Good luck, and keep me posted.

The doctors can; however, if it is caused by an electrical/nerve issue, those procedures are of no use.

Living with incontinence does get easier with time but hopefully, you will regain the continence! try not to think about the "diaper" its just underwear once you find a product that you trust it really does just become underwear but that takes time. The added stress of the Heart issue certainly does not help but once you have an understanding of that issue your stress should reduce and that may help your continence. In time I hope you find your normal preferably dry but remember the incontinence does not define who you are!

For my case, they gave me a beta blocker to slow my tachycardia down. Then in other cases, it goes to slow. And they place a pacemaker to regulate the rhythm. The cardiologists can also do ablations to try to regulate the rhythm. I’m still learning about all this stuff. Really new to me.
