Hi all just had my loop recorder removed after nearly three years.. I had no episodes accept one faint which was told was normal syncope as I was sick and under stress at the time it happened which is good . the loop recorder picked up the faint which happened two and a half years after receiving the loop.. am curious has anyone got a call back after episodes and what action was taking. A few times I was anxious I was sure it would set the loop of with high heart but am glad it was all down to anxiety in a way.

Hi Eddie

I received a loop recorder following a couple of blackouts. My third blackout was picked up by my clinic. I was diagnosed with sinus node bradycardia and fitted with a pacemaker. I’ve experienced no such incidents since that procedure.
