I'm 18 turning 19 in a couple of months and the flu saved my life I had really bad flu symptoms and went to the ER and found out I had heart failure which shocked the hell out of me bc no one in my family has it so I spent two months in the hospital and now have an LVAD

what symptoms did you have before you were diagnosed? I'm currently waiting to get diagnosed with a heart condition

The scariest shift of my ER life was a patient that rolled in with his LVAD screaming because it was about to die and he forgot his batteries and someone moved our back up. We got to him just in time

I'm soooo grateful these exist and as a paramedic I'm mildly nauseated thinking of attending LVAD patients 😩 you all are amazing

Just got my heart transplant back in March.I lived with an artificial heart for about a year. I always had to have someone with me 24/7 in case the machine faulted. These machines are so amazing.

I have bad health anxiety, especially about my heart, and this genuinely made me feel better. Modern medicine is amazing, thank you for sharing 💕

May I ask if this is congenital or secondary to something? No answer required, just an interested nurse

What happens to the heart in the several seconds it takes when you’re disconnecting and reconnecting? Do you feel any physical symptoms when you do that?
