I wouldn't doubt the actual amount of people who experience this at its highest level is also the correct percentage of patients who statistically would have the proven and real problem of late in life schizophrenia or some other type of personality defect. In fact even a normal human mind can produce through suggestion, all kinds of bizarre effects. We all have nightmares, like to go to scary movies, and daydream the most fantastic fantasies. A traumatic and very life threatening event like a heart transplant has got to have some effect on some people. It's not as if everyone can walk out of the hospital totally unaffected mentally that someone else's heart is beating inside of them.

What's more likely? That's what I always ask.

That the heart defies everything we know about and produces these types of effects.

Or....

That a small percentage of people actually go a bit nuts, and swear it's the the transplant.
