Had heart rythym problems for many years which was controlled by beta blockers but has worsened and had a pacemaker installed in June this year.

Pacemaker is Assurity DR MRI PM2272 dual chamber PPM (IS1/IS1

This has not settled down properly yet and am seeing a consultant tomorrow

Anyone else had experience of this pacemaker?

I don't recognise all your numbers but I have an Assurity MRI PM2272 which I think is the same thing. Mine is connected to my heart with two leads - one to the atria and one to the ventricles so mine is also dual chamber. That's probably where the similarities stop because there are many many ways to program these things to behave in different ways to correct rythmn problems. Mine was fitted in March and is working fine. I don't really know it's there.
