I have suffered with increasing breathlessness when exercising for the past two years or so. Diagnosed with a 2nd degree heart block in July 19 fitted with a pace maker in September with the hope this would be the answer to my problems.
This has stopped the episodes I was having. However I am still getting extreme breathlessness when walking, any hills involved I can barely get my breath. This leaves me feeling very ill for about an hour afterwards. It’s got to a point that I can’t now walk to the shops without being out of breath and feeling ill.
I’ve always been very active less than a year ago I walked up Snowdonia twice in a weekend cycling 100 miles a week. Etc etc.
So as you can imagine I am finding this all very difficult.
Am I expecting to much to soon. Any advice or experiences. ?
