early concerns/ paranoia
There was a 5 week delay in getting a MRI because I have a
pacemaker
(approved but very few labs will do it). My urologist’s office says they dont discuss the urine test until the MRI results are in (still another 10 days).

New Pacemaker (Mk3) Incoming
Now that my current
Pacemaker
has reached a grand old 10years of age, I've been referred for new batteries/box. Should be straightforward enough, as the wiring seems to be fine, so a quick splice into the shoulder and old replaced with new.

ICD/Pacemaker Job Done
Hi all. Got the implant op on Wednesday and home yesterday. Everything went like clockwork (excuse the pun). I cant praise the staff at Edingurgh Royal Infirmary enough. They were wonderful. It was a very strange experience being awake while this was going on. I could feel all the pulling pushing happening

Afib/tachycardia
My last
pacemaker
check up showed that I had tachycardia during afib. I’ve had afib for years (24+) two ablations, no help. Only drugs are bisoprolol and apixaban.

Pacemaker question
Does anyone know what a dual chamber
pacemaker
does besides preventing the heart beating too slowly? I was told mine reduced the duration of the QRS complex. I would be very grateful for information, or a source where I could get information.

I have a
pacemaker
as my heart rate was too slow . It has been fixed at 61. An AV node ablation has been mentioned. Are they successful?

pulse
Two years ago my husband had a total heart block and was hastily fitted with a
pacemaker
. Since then we have discovered he has Atrial Fibrillation 1.9%of the time and so takes Edoxaban. Nurse at surgery yesterday sat for ages clutching his pulse before finally telling him he wasn’t in AF then.

Ablation of AV node after pacemaker put on in July
Well, I have finally had the AV node Ablation, after having the
pacemaker
placed in July. Now I don’t get arrhythmia anymore but very fast pulsations and low rates, always around the 80s and at rest 75. Guess the pm needs to adjust to a more acceptable pace. Waiting to see. Any ideas, please.

Exbury Gardens 10k No 2 with a long post warning ⚠️
UTS went looking for his 55 min
pacemaker
and I found a place in the 1hour + zone. I completed my warm up exercises in the queue, while organisers were still asking runners to go to the start.

Pacemaker and heated vests
Was hoping someone who is
pacemaker
wired -like I am - uses a heated vest with no repercussions. Other than being warm. Smile, breathe and go slow.

Hard lump after Pacemaker insertion.
I had a
Pacemaker
inserted in June but I have recently noticed a hard lump under the skin develop, immediately above the
Pacemaker
incision area. It doesn’t look red or inflamed but feels tender, tight and uncomfortable . Anyone else had this after a
Pacemaker
insertion?

Disappearing AF.
A couple of years ago my
pacemaker
picked up episodes of AF . At the time I was already taking 10 mg of rivaroxiban as a maintenance dose due to blood clots in my leg. The anticoagulant doctor was looking at me stopping the rivaroxiban at this time .

too old for ablation?
About 5 years ago, she got a
pacemaker
and was put on sotalol & Metropolol, which controlled things well for a while. Recently, she’s been having more frequent episodes of afib (lasting a week or so at a time).

pacemaker and sleep
three weeks ago, I had a
pacemaker
fitted. For the last three or four days, I thought I was getting an infection. There seem to be a pain around the right hand side of the site of the
Pacemaker
.

An Eventful January
Week 4 - Monday,
Pacemaker
pre-op. Tuesday, new
pacemaker
to be fitted, looking forward to having the op done and dusted. Although I have this nagging doubt that something will come up in the pre-op that may delay things.

All Systems Go
Had my Pre-op this morning for my
Pacemaker
Box/Batteries replacement. It went well enough, my bloods including INR were fine, although there was concern over ongoing breathlessness and the extent of fluid retention in my lungs and chest cavity.

ICD fitting tomorrow!
So, currently have a
pacemaker
fitted externally, this was done on Sunday (8/Oct/23), and have been given the option to have either a
pacemaker
or ICD fitted permanently from tomorrow. Prior to all this, my LQTS was managed with 160mg Propranolol daily.
