After reading your posts I can see you have had several PMs since 2005 and that one was removed because of infection.

My PM was also removed because of infection 9 years ago and I haven't had one since.

Can I ask why you had the PM originally. Are you happy with your leadless Medtronic? Is it fixed somehow?

I was in and out of A&E with Paroxysmal AF . Didn't tolerate a lot of the Meds they tried .hence the PM.

Was fine with the first 2 then infection on the 3rd and subsequent 2 .infection was in the leads .

Getting used to the medtronic now but it has taken a wee while to accustom my body to the low heart rate . And this latest episode of AF was tolerable with the new pm controlling the ventrical .
