Any EECP experiences?

Topics:EECP Therapy , Heart Disease , Coronary Bypass Surgery , EFR

My cardiologist recently recommended EECP therapy since bypass surgery would not be beneficial. I currently have 20% EFR and the Thallium stress showed no vitality in the heart that would benefit by bypass. Was wondering if anyone has been through this therapy or knows of anyone that has. I'm looking for any info I can find.
