pacemaker
I would like to know whether it is ok to use headphones, which are magnetic, with a
pacemaker
. Can I use in both ears or only in the right ear?

refused an MRI
However, NHS trust fund are refusing the MRI (even though his
pacemaker
is compatible) because he did not have his
pacemaker
fitted at this hospital or in Nottingham. Can anyone please explain to me why they are refusing the MRI?

update re life 3 months post pacemaker
Hi, Thank you to everyone who reassured me about exercising and life post getting my
pacemaker
fitted. It was inserted 3 months ago and I have recently returned from a tent camping trip for nearly a month in France, where I resumed cycling and using a lightweight back pack.

AFIB help
Would a
pacemaker
be a better option? We both just feel so hopeless and powerless waiting on the NHS. Just looking for some support or hope.

cardiac or costochondritis pain
I’ve also got a
pacemaker
so I’m always thinking are these chest aches just costo or anything cardiac 🤔 the pain goes away completely when I’m at the school and doesn’t radiate anywhere so I’m more convinced it’s just costo pain .

Boston Scientific latitude monitor
I had a
pacemaker
fitted 4 weeks ago and was provided with one of these which is plugged into my bedroom as suggested. I am going away on 4th May and wondered if you are supposed to take this monitor with you. If so, do I put it in my hand luggage to my suitcase. Hopefully someone can tell me.

Afib and Atrial tachycardia ...
Hi all, Long story short, I've had arrhythmia for years, Afib and SVT. 4 ablations later, last year they fitted me with a dual chamber
pacemaker
and had an AV Node ablation.

seeking info.
He has said my next (and last option) is 'pace and ablate' My understanding is this means to install a
pacemaker
and ablate the AV node. What I don't understand is what will be happening once I have afib after this procedure. How will I feel? What are the benefits and drawbacks.
