r defibrillator (ICD) people Ken, I am going to make some suggestions, I hope will help your wife. First one is to use a search engine on the net, which is called (this is not a joke) dogpile.com. This accesses several other search engines and runs quite fast. The other idea I had is to try to figure out if the fibrillations are caused by a certain activity, or maybe a food item, try to determine a pattern. There is a tired old joke about a person who tells the doctor "it hurts when I lift my arm" and the doctor replied "don't lift your arm" Not what the person wants to hear, but, good advice! The other idea, is to try to get the doctor to prescribe something to stop the anxiety! Who knows, it might also stop the fibrillations. Hope you get some advice that helps. Ken B
