I get home sick real bad, and I am supposed to have my surgery sometime soon.
Sorry to keep ranting about my H. I have no place to turn to.

Scarlet, Do you think that the DX of Wolff Parkinson White was super traumatic for him? It's athlete sudden death syndrome. I played a varsity sport in college, and they found heart patterns they didn't like and I had to wear a halter monitor for a few days. There DX was WPW at first, but thankfully it turned out to be AV Nodal entry - so not that risk of sudden death with no warning. I was in college so it didn't mess with my head as much as maybe it would have at an older age, but my mom was freaked.
I wonder if your husband got it in his head that feeling he could die any second, and now he can't put it aside? The other thing is not munchausen, but there's a syndrome in which you are REALLY scared, and being surrounded by the white coats is the only thing that stops the fear?
This is a really hard situation, and it can't go on and on. Something is going to happen that is bad, unless your husband takes a big risk to make something good happen by facing this in therapy, or with a cardiologist who can tell him he is really fine now etc?
