I don't know the first thing about pacemakers but a friend of mine has had a massive uptick in quality of life since getting his put in. He's not tired or dizzy anymore says he feels great.

Don't worry about it. It is a very quick procedure my best friend is a cardiologist and puts them in all the time. He never has any problems ever in years of practice. I have two friends that had them put in and wow do they feel great. It is easy as pie, don't be afraid it will be the best thing u have done for urself possibly forever. Good luck

Hello Peggy Its not stupid at all to be scared its very normal

I remember my dad had one fitted it was a while ago now but he was absolutely fine it seemed quite a simple procedure and wasn't in pain after as I remember we visited soon after and he was right as rain

You won't be on pain afterwards I hope it all goes well

They will take great care of you and reassure you on the day

Good luck and heres to a nice new beginning xx
