If it is the same problem, this procedure (cathater ablation) truly rocks. One of the reasons that this whole thing wasn't smooth-sailing for my hubby is the fact that he's got gobs of those extra connections. (which also might be why he's having the issues now, maybe they missed a couple)

Anyway, if you've got the same thing, this can actually FIX the problem. No dohickies implanted, no life-long medications.... Permanently.

Your family wants <b>you </b>more'n money.

I heard a little bit about the defibrillators, but when we talked to the first set of doctors, it didn't sound like a truly viable option. (Though that could have been just the hubby not wanting a 'pacemaker' even though that wasn't what it was.) It was a few years ago, and I don't remember the reasoning. Does your mom have to take any medications with it?
