Driving with a pacemaker, DVLA

[Redcollector]

I saw today a letter in a motoring publication where someone who had a pacemaker since 2013 fitted for arrhythmia and presumably been driving since ok, has at the age of 70 when he came to apply for his licence as you are required to do every three years after age 70 had his licence refused.

I was wondering if anyone on here has any experience of the same thing whilst I am not 70 yet but only a few years away am now rather concerned about having the same thing happen.

Any information appreciated
