PACEMAKER

Hi. Ive chronic asthma and following on from my 72 hour egg and heart recorder I now am booked in for a pacemaker in a couple of weeks. This is to prevent my heart from pausing as the recorder has shown.

Anyway when I looked into a pacemaker some say it causes breathlessness and others say it improves breathlessness. Im obviously hoping for the improvement. I guess buy question is does anyone with asthma also have a pacemaker fitted and has it helped you or made you feel worse.? Thanks x
