95% Paced
If you are 95% paced, does it mean you would die without the
pacemaker
. And does the battery run down faster.

Extreme fatigue 2 years after valve replacement
And a
pacemaker
fitted. I have been well since but in the last month I have started to get breathless (not too bad) and extreme fatigue. After 12hrs sleep I struggle out if bed and by lunchtime I am so exhausted. I am worried my valve is failing again, any ideas?

Pace Maker lead caused Valve complications post TAVI
My mother recently had a TAVI procedure which resulted in her requiring an emergency permanent
pacemaker
fitted. Since being discharged (a day after her Op) her breathlessness has limited her ability to even make it to the toilet.

Hello My condition has worsened I am in permanent AF have been for a few years, also have Heart failure due to this Consultant consultation a few weeks ago - now in Tachymyopathy I have been told it is best to have AV node ablation now although I have fought having this for years I do have a
pacemaker

Being off eliquis for surgery
how is being off Eliquis for 3 days handled for
pacemaker
battery change. Is another drug used to prevent stroke possibility? How challenging is it to have the PM battery changed? I have AF & Arterial Flutter. I am mildly symptomatic. I'm on Eliquis 5 mg twice a day.

Do you have persistent or long-standing AF?
You may also be taking medications, have previously experienced an intervention such as a catheter ablation, cardioversion or a
pacemaker
.

Ongoing investigation
I really do wish I had more knowledge about AV ablation and
pacemaker
insertion before I accepted the procedure. Maybe breathing exercises, an inhaler and anxiety meds may be the answer but I have doubts but more than willing to try.

Just Diagnosed With Atrial Fibrillation
I also know that I could have an ablation if it doesn't work and failing that, have a
pacemaker
fitted. Obviously I'm hoping the cardioversion works and that it works for a long time but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

information to share
I am sharing because I got a
pacemaker
just a month ago. Obviously those of us with one should be aware. They warned to keep the phone away from us, but I am curious how much more damage could happen with this is part of the case

Requesting information/help for my girlfriend
She has had her
pacemaker
coming up to 4 months now, but is still having horrible shooting pains, that without the help of OxyContin, she will pass out from. I’m not sure if this is the correct place to ask but we’re both worried and scared that this will continue forever.

TENS machines & AF
I’ve lone PAF (no
pacemaker
). AFib isn’t contraindicated, but sending electrical signals through my body feels counter-intuitive. Thx.

I have further had a heart condition diagnosed and have been scheduled to have a
