 I am a 55 year old Australian male. 5 years ago I was diagnosed with Brugada syndrome by a very clever cardiologist who was aware of an unusuality with my ECG. I had my first non induced Brugada heart attack 12 weeks ago, losing consciousness for 15 seconds. Thank goodness I had an ICD implanted after the diagnosis. I was also fortunate that I was sitting at the time of the attack albeit in my car about to turn on the ignition & was not injured -- physically anyhow ! I am very lucky all round & am hoping that will be my only incident. Are there any other sufferers who can share events with me ?
