Fitted Pacemaker (June 2017)

[MichaelJH Heart Star]

Did it go well? Any problems?

[derekfirman36 in reply to MichaelJH]

Yes. Cardiac Sister explained details before admission. As I had in place a recorder, it's removal and fitting the Pacemaker was longer (50 minutes) I was returned to the recovery room ( 2hours) The Surgeon called on me to again to explain the workings of PM's. Helped with DVLA forms. (No problems with DVLA)

Recovery period 4 weeks (No driving, lifting anything heavy etc.. NO golf ! )

I can now confirm that all has gone well. NO more problems. I feel 10 years younger and now garden & play golf. Great. Derek36
