Sounds like a loop recorder or reveal which many have I suspect. There are two types. one about the size of a memory stick and the newer ones which are about the thickenss of a pencil and can be injected.

I had one put in about three years ago. Battery is still working (supposed to last 3 years) handy to have the data when needed. Procedure was easy. Hope yours went well.

[Truckerclark]

How are you doing? I was told after I had mine in for a couple of days, that the dr. was going to put in a pace maker. The next day he called me back and said he reviewed my stats and decided not to put in pacemaker and he didn't know what was wrong with me!

[Truckerclark in reply to dwright12]

I've had mine's in for months now . And got cardio phone consultation this Friday afternoon. I'll know more then . I was told it would probably be ablation again or pacemaker ...
