Atrial Fibrillation / Cervical Spondylosis link?
I am wondering if a
Pacemaker
could control the AF and ensure a steady, regular heartbeat irrespective of what is happening in my neck? Does anyone suffer from or know of this type of situation please? Thank you, Tone 35

A BIT OF A SCARE
Last week I had a bit of a scare regarding my
pacemaker
fitted in February. I have a unique
pacemaker
one set up only for me.

pacemaker to be fitted tomorrow
so tomorrow I have a
pacemaker
fitted & I am so nervous. Am worried about how to cope afterwards with using the arm & shoulder the
pacemaker
is in. I understand I can’t lift my arm above my head or behind my body but can I put any weight on it for example to move up in bed.

I have been on Healthunlocked for 3 years because in the same week nearly 4 years ago I found out I needed a
pacemaker
for low heart rate and also had severe copd. Which really worried me.

Ascending Aortic Aneurysm
In hospital waiting for a
Pacemaker
to be fitted due to my AF and had an Echo which has just picked up that my Ascending Aortic Aneurysm has gone from 2.8 cm on my last Echo in 2019 to 3.7cm yesterday. Should I be concerned? Any thoughts much appreciated , or am I worrying over nothing?

Bisoprolol problems
I've even been told maybe
pacemaker
will be fitted at some point. I'm waiting for the heart issues to be sorted to be listed for liver transplant. But all the issues is setting it back now the very low resting rate of 30's is causing problems I sure its Bisoprolol. Edit.

pacemaker and a fib
In March this year I was given a dual chamber
pacemaker
. I have had no A Fib episodes since until this morning when I woke up with it thumping away. Disappointing but I suppose it had to happen. My question relates to my heart rate.

pacemaker
I’ve been told fitting a
pacemaker
maybe the answer to my permanent AF. Does anyone who had AF have experience of this solution?

AV - Ablation and Tachycardia-Bradycardia
After a recent visit and consultation with my doctor, he suggested I go forward with an AV node ablation, since I already was being somewhat controlled by a
pacemaker
. Yesterday, I had the procedure.

Any advice on Lead extraction op welcome please
I know fitting
pacemaker
is easier and that part doesnt worry me. What worries me is the risk factor as it appears quite an intensive operation to remove leads and repair any damage. Also will the
pacemaker
regulate my heart sufficiently to get me off the meds?
