Thanks

I know, its all strange! was not told what it was set to as I did not have a clue I needed to know, all I know is that they were putting it in as a last resort as meds and ablation didn't work, also was under the impression nothing would happen with it until I had my AV node ablation?

Have had it checked once in January, never had a HR that low, even tried the monitor on my family but they all read fine so don't think it is faulty but def feel slow pulse in my throat etc.

Guess I will have to keep on at them until I get somwhere

Not what you're looking for?
