Problems with pacemaker insertion
Had
pacemaker
fitted five weeks ago and readmitted later that day as ventricular lead had moved and caused pericardial effusion. So back to theatre and on both occasions found the experience horrendius to say the least.

Echo tomorrow
Nervous as last echo put me in hospital for 7 weeks and ended with the AVR op and Crtd
pacemaker
being fitted. Didn't have any symptoms despite EF being below 30. Just hoping EF is up and everything is OK. Anybody have similar experience?

AV Node ablation & CRT Pacemaker
My Cardiologist wants to ablate my AV node (the junction box in the heart), knock it out completely so only the heart muscle will work and insert a CRT
pacemaker
which I will be totally reliant on. This scares me!

Afib only in late afternoon
The doctor is now talking about the possibility of a
pacemaker
. Not sure how this would help with a fast heartbeat. Does anyone here have this problem or had this happen to help.

Hiccups and De fib pacemaker
Does anyone with a
pacemaker
suffer from hiccups or does anyone know of any meds that cause this symptom? Also heart burn. My husband hiccups about half an hour after every meal, he mentioned it to Dr, but no advice.

Update on dizziness/fainting & arm pain
She said the remedy will likely be a
pacemaker
. That sounds like something for an old person. My little body is falling apart but not ready to give up. Never liked being idle - not painting large murals anymore - painting what I can do; so I'm painting rocks. Sauna is almost completed.

Private Battery Replacement
I had a
pacemaker
fitted November 2013. For my pilot licence the CAA require at least 6 months battery available. I have maybe 2 years left. The NHS, as far as I can determine, take it right down to the wire. They won't make an appointment until there is 6 months or less left.

Pacemaker review
I believe that we are only legal to drive with a
pacemaker
if we have an annual review. They phoned today to say that they had to cancel the appointment due to the virus - and could they do it in a year's time.
