I haven't been able to get past the first episode, actually, I haven't been able to get past the first 25 minutes. I've tried a few times but I keep falling asleep. I will of course give it another chance, at least 4-5 episodes chance.
Mine cut out after 2 months of use. I use them with my iPhone and it goes in my front right pocket 5 days a week. I wish they came with a right angle plug.
Good to know you're better. My friend's father suffered from the same and it was a really distraught time. He was bleeding fast and a lot, so much they ran out of his blood type at the hospital. But like you, he pulled through.
