i had my pacemaker fitted to help with bradycardia 10 weeks ago and over the last week i have been having night-time (mostly) fluctuations in my heart rhythm. Lots of missed beats etc making me feel fairly rubbish. Obviously no where near as bad as when my HR was dropping to low 30s but enough to disturb my sleep.
I'm just wondering if this is something i should report to the cardiac team or just wait until they interrogate/download the PM info which is due for a date in May.
thanks for any advice!

I would give your pacemaker clinic a ring and discuss it with them. They may want to get you in to check the settings. When I had my pacemaker inserted I was told to ring the clinic if I was ever concerned about anything.
I’ve found my local clinic really lovely and helpful. Hopefully your will be the same, but I would definitely ring them and have a chat because you don’t want to wait until May if it’s something that can be easily sorted.
