Event Description
This is the date of my first cardiac ablation for persistent premature ventricular contractions (pvc). It is one of 2 ablations in less than a year. It is related to my breast implants in my opinion. Mainly because shortly after getting the implants in 2004, i started experiencing rapid heart rate which was eventually controlled with beta blockers, but then i started having pvc's more frequently and not always controlled by medication. I started having sensitivity to foods which i never had before and the foods cause pvc's. I was diagnosed with hashimoto's thyroiditis 3 years ago. I am tired all the time despite excellent diet and plenty of exercise. I experience brain fog, trouble recalling words and i'm only(b)(6). I am cold all the time and my hormones are poorly balanced on their own.
