Wolf Mini maze. It Works.

Hi, I am really in good shape after the Wolf mini maze. I am almost off all medications and only some few PVCs occasionally., I am here to tell you that The Wolf mini maze is amazing and that Doctor Wolf is amazing. I wish more surgeons would learn how to do this procedure. I am horrified by all the Ablations being done with hit or miss results, and all the potential side effects of matter being stirred up and causing potential strokes.

that’s great news for you, not sure what you mean by ‘matter being stirred up causing strokes’? Do you mean the ablation causes strokes?

Daisaku in reply to Lilylui

yes, it can because it stirs up debris in the veins. Look it up.

That's good to hear that you're doing well.

How long ago did you have the mini maize procedure carried out by Dr Wolf?

I am really pleased for you Daisuka, long may NSR continue.

Catheter ablations have the same success rates as mini maze for patients in early stage afib 80-90% and so do absolutely have a successful place in it’s treatment, there are many success stories on here.

There are risks associated with both procedures, mini maze use to have higher risks but not now as the procedure has been improved in recent years. Dr Wolf is the pioneer for sure in this space with an excellent personal record recognised by his peers I consulted with.

I do agree with you though for stubborn and persistent afib if you have access to a surgeon then this route should absolutely be considered as an option with a higher success rate. If you live in England your GP or local EP can refer you to a surgeon doing this but in Scotland, Wales and Ireland there is currently no surgeon doing this so unless you are able to go private. A postcode lottery.

Hi Daisuka.

Thanks for sharing this - the mini maze is not something I have really looked into. I'm going to now !

The success rate is 60 - 95% and it can / does reduce stroke risk by 97%. This is certainly worthy of further investigation. Pleased it's worked for you.

Good for you! Mine was scheduled for next week at Houston Methodist but cancelled it since they were forcing me to abide by Covid scamdemic protocols (pcr test, who knows what else they would inject in me while under). I'm happy for you!

goodness, surprised to read this., dr Wolf has a 5 month waitlist. Given covid is here to stay you could be faced with the same worries again in the future,

Daisaku profile image
Daisaku in reply to Jpot34

they won’t inject you with anything Covid related. I think that you are a little going overboard with your conspiracies. I think you should do the surgery while you have the chance. AFIB is awful.

I am so sorry you felt the need to cancel a long waited for appointment over a test meant to protect you from a poor outcome from the procedure.

your choice of course, but whilst working working I had to test twice weekly and submit result, I never felt anything but grateful that I had the opportunity to protect myself and my patients

We agree to disagree! I obviously have information you don't. Ever heard of researching the rabbit hole?

Harry63 profile image
Harry63 in reply to Jpot34

Yep, sure have. It's the same thing people who believe Sandy Hook was a bunch of crisis actors say.

I love how all of these people on here regularly, seemingly just waiting for someone to mention Covid, so that they can talk endlessly about all their research about it, but here they are silent. To see just one of them say, a test isn't going to hurt you, and that they don't believe they would inject you with things while you're out, shouldn't be unheard of. But obviously people have to stubbornly stick themselves in one camp or another - and despite the ridiculousness of your assertions, they say nothing.

Meanwhile Hidden , for example, will jump in when someone says they believe the vaccine helped them to have Covid more mildly, to say how ridiculous it is for people to say the vaccine made their symptoms more mild.

It's really quite entertaining to watch them dance around, tbh. Would be more so, if it wasn't also sad.

Oh what a perfect world you must live in. To believe that no one could possibly be harmed from the vaccines. Please tell that to the deceased brother of someone I know who woke up paralyzed after the 2nd Moderna shot and eventually died. His Dr said it was because of the vaccine. No doubt. But you are probably one who would just say it was a coincidence. People are refusing to read the information coming out about the serious adverse effects from these vaccines. And yes deaths. Now THAT is sad.

Harry63 profile image
Harry63 in reply to belindalore

My post had nothing to do with whether or not anyone would be harmed from vaccines. I am referring to Jpot saying they canceled their heart surgery because they were going to test them for Covid. Not to mention expressing that they think they might be injected with something without permission while they are under for the surgery. Try responding to what I actually posted next time.

belindalore in reply to Harry63

Perhaps you should re-read your own replies. I won't bother you further. Have a great day!

Harry63 profile image
Harry63 in reply to belindalore

Of course you won't. 🤣

belindalore profile image
belindalore in reply to Harry63

Because you aren't worth my time. Too close minded.

Harry63 profile image
Harry63 in reply to belindalore

So everyone should cancel heart surgery if they are requested to test for Covid, and they should never be put under anesthesia because they will probably be given the vaccine while they're unconscious?

belindalore profile image
belindalore in reply to Harry63

No one should be forced to do something they don't want to do. And that's basically what that boils down to.

And please don't put words in others mouths.

Harry63 profile image
Harry63 in reply to belindalore

No kidding. I mean, I agree. Honestly if someone would cancel a quality of life improving surgery for such a ridiculous reason, they obviously didn't need it that bad I guess, let someone more deserving have your appointment. Good show.

Seriously, avoid anesthesia for the rest of your life. Don't ever go under anesthesia because if you do surely you will wake up vaccinated.

I don't believe a PCR test has a big chance of harming you . I had one before each of my hip replacement operations in order to enter the hospital. The second did actually hurt me as I think the lab tech who administered it was a bit too enthusiastic. Neither did I have any worries about being injected with anything untoward whilst under the anaesthetic. But I live in a different country so I have no idea whether his fears are justified or not.

Daisaku, congratulations on having such a good outcome! How long ago did you have your surgery? How was your recovery? I have read that recovery from the Wolf Mini Maze is not for the faint of heart. I am considering having one, but am concerned about the recovery.

You really have a problem with reading comprehension I see.

Harry63 profile image
Harry63

IDGAF how you specifically say it, it is exactly what you do. Multiple times someone mentions they think the vaccine helped them to have a mild case, and you jump right in to talk about how there's no way of knowing that. Yet you couldn't possibly care to jump in when someone makes the ridiculous assertion that a Covid test would cause them harm, or that medics would inject you with things against your wishes while you are under anesthesia having surgery.

Clearly.

When I tagged you I said I was: Curious what your reaction is to Jpot's post.

I actually decided I don't care. belindalore helped me realize that I should just be happy that they opened up their appointment for someone more worth it. Please continue on your crusades.

Excuse me - please do not mention my name - or anyone else’s for that matter - with ‘all or nothing thinking’. Methinks that label belongs to you. Because you may have read one or two of my posts or replies does not entitle you to pass judgement on my views or anyone else’s.

I think MummyLuv gave a very balanced answer to rather provocative statements.

There are many roads to wellness and exploration is often mind expanding whether or not you agree as to which road to take.

Very sad how a difference of opinion can now deteriate so quickly into name calling.

I ask politely you edit your reply and delete all the names above from your post. If you want to argue please feel free to go ahead - but don’t try to provoke others.

Like I said, I care not at this point. I've actually come to see what you do as beneficial to the rest of us.

Oh Harry! Highly doubtful that’s your real name but let’s use it for arguments sake. Curiosity killed the cat didn’t you hear?

I would love to point out the inconsistencies, irony and pure stupidity of your statements but I think it’s fairly evident for anyone with two eyes and half a brain to see that your someone that’s been ridiculed in the past for your ridiculous statements and has come back in a different guise to have another go 😆 it’s quite embarrassing I’ve got to admit. Even more embarrassing if your actually a genuinely real person that’s joined not even a month ago and thinks they know how any other person ticks from a few random comments they’ve read.

When people join this forum it’s usually to seek help and they will make a post with a specific question to get more information about their condition. You’ve posted nothing. You’ve asked nothing. All you’ve done is get yourself worked up about comments made by others 😆 get a grip of yourself “Harry”, calm yourself down, behave like an adult and come back when you can have a conversation instead of speaking utter rubbish.

Better still tell us who you really are as it’s evident you have a rather large axe you carry around that is in need of grinding.

Embarrassing!

Harry63 profile image
Harry63 in reply to Elli86

As I said, my view has changed. Pleased all of you have responded, though. As I said, continue on your crusades. It helps cleanse the world of stupidity in the long run, and it opens up appointments for those more deserving of them, to boot!

Elli86 profile image
Elli86 in reply to Harry63

Utter gibberish “harry” like the rest of your comments 😆 your no more than a polarising troll trying to lump people into groups. Anyone with half a brain cell can look at things from different perspectives and use their own initiative to make an informed decision.

Just the mere fact that you assume that we would all agree with jpots comment shows your total lack of any sort of intellect 😆

Harry63 profile image
Harry63 in reply to Elli86

Never thought you would agree to their comments, but you have proven exactly what I said about not bothering to say anything when someone makes such outlandish, actually harmful, claims.

I hope the idea of forced inoculation helps many stupid people avoid going under anesthesia to their misery and/or demise.
