APPLE WATCH/ PACEMAKER

[juanitamc]

Hi

Has anyone expirance any problems with wearing and Apple watch series 6, The latest model and having a pacemaker.

I know you have to be extra careful with Magnets and the watch has a magnet on the strap?

Thank you

Medtronic say it should be ok as long as the charger and watch are kept away from the pacemaker so don't wear at night.

Thank you so much for your reply, Do you know if it's alright to wear on the left arm, as I was thinking on using it on the right arm but it doesn't feel right there as I'm a right handed person

I don't know but assuming your pacemaker is on the left as usual it would be nearer so right might be better.
