zapped

[Guest guest]

I just moved to Florida and visited my new AICD

Doctor.

I was pretty confident after 8 months with no Zap.

Then while engaging in marital relations, seconds

before that important moment...ZAP. I was shocked!!!

I was shocked that I didn't pass out.

I was shocked that it didn't hurt (4.7 joules.)

I was shocked that it was over before I even realized

that I was shocked.

I was shocked that my wife thought that might be

enough risk-taking for that day, (though she said that

she didn't feel anything..from the zap (lol).

It took a week to coinvince wife it was a one time

thing... Zap...it happened again.

I was beginning to wonder if I would have to make a

choice between " not doing it " and death!

After a 3rd try (thanks to a brave wife) and 3rd Zap,

I convinced the Doctor to change the settings upward

20 points.

NO more zaps since.

I subsequently bought a heart monitor watch and and

found that at " that moment " I run just 3 heartbeats

faster then the previous zap setting.

Re an earlier letter about people over 30....

When my 16yo daughter found out she thought we were

" Disgraceful. " My 13yo daughter's comment, " Ewww.You

did it while I was in the house? "

We are not afraid of (me) getting zapped anymore, and

we have a lot to laugh about.
