Sobering.

I just ran across a blog entitled Adventures in Cardiology. It details the experiences, from the husband’s viewpoint, of a cardiac nurse undergoing RF ablation for atrial fib.

It is, simply put, a must read for anyone who truly cares about patients. Pam’s experiences can fill a textbook in what NOT to do from both a medical and nursing standpoint.

Thanks, Dan and Pam, for being courageous enough to write about your experience. I hope things are now going well for you both.

As for me, I think that I have learned much by seeing this unique and unfortunate viewpoint.
