Pacemaker safety alert.
I've heard that the
pacemaker
I had fitted nearly 4 years ago has received a safety alert on them and now I need a box/battery operation to replace it.Just wondering how others have recovered from a box change?

Afib induced syncope update from #chinkoflight
After all the full diagnostics the likely outcome will be ablations/
pacemaker
. All the experience shared has been helpful to hear this. Of course I am now on a mandatory 6 month driving ban which is a huge blow and will seriously impact my lifestyle.

pacemaker lead noise
Had recent
pacemaker
download and it’s picked up lead noise. This has never happened in the 12 years I’ve had
pacemaker
leads. Tried doing different movements to try and reproduce it but didn’t trigger it.
Pacemaker
team didn’t appear concerned just to go back in 12 months time.

Child with inherited heart condition
He was fitted with a
pacemaker
in his 30s. I took my children to be tested and my Son was found to have the same gene. He has first degree heart block and partial brundle branch block. Luckily, he does not have a hole in the heart. My daughter doesn't have the gene.

Update and Plan
He said worst case scenario, if it just gets worse and worse, he could do an AV node ablation and
pacemaker
, but that is obviously his last choice for options. He seemed to understand that the meds may just be a stop gap and that ultimately, I will be back in the EP lab.

Hello Everyone !!
In mid Jan 2024, I had an episode which was recorded on the loop recorder which showed my heart had stopped for 14 seconds and I was admitted straight away for a
pacemaker
. At the current time, am very shocked and surprised 😳 and sore but relieved that I have some explanation.

Pacemakers - what is your experience? The good, the bad and the ugly...
I may have to have a
pacemaker
fitted. Will I still be able to run long distance? What are the benefits and challenges you faced with your
pacemaker
... The dos and donts that May not necessarily be obvious.

CPAP Warning regarding ICDs and stents
All well apart from news I need a new face mask as current one has magnets which can affect medical implants such as
pacemaker
or even metallic stents. Phillips have recalled and Resmed have issued warning letter.

I was very ill for some time after and a week later needed to have a permanent
pacemaker
fitted. There were other difficulties which meant I was unable to travel home until 5th February.

Pacemaker Needed
She said the consultant had instructed her to put me down for a
pacemaker
and to expect to be called in for an echocardiogram in the near future, and possibly an angiogram after that. I am trying to make sense of it all.

Recent HF diagnosis
If it's not working as well as they hope, they will probably fit a
pacemaker
, but he told me they only work in about 50% of cases, which worried me a lot because the next option after that is to assess me for a heart transplant.

cardiac MRI with a MRI safe pacemaker
has anyone had a cardiac MRI scan with a MRI safe
pacemaker
and leads ? I was told by a cardiologist a while ago that even though
pacemaker
MRI safe they don’t like doing scans to heart. My echo images are always poor and I wanted to know if the cardiac mri was an option. Thanks
