Fatigue 9 months later
Feeling really rough last year this time and eventually
pacemaker
fitted September due to Bradycardia and sick sinus. Have made considerable progress but would still like to be more fit to do gym and swimming as I used to. Currently swimming x 2 weekly but sluggish most times.

Pacemaker for dizziness and arm shaking?
After tests, he has been diagnosed with sick sinus syndrome (I think) and a dual
pacemaker
recommended. Has anyone had these symptoms and been cured by having a
pacemaker
fitted?

Pacemaker bleeps every two minutes.
I phoned the
pacemaker
clinic but got their answering machine and left a message. Has anyone else had this and what was the cause if not the battery.

Home sleep study
I have afib and a
pacemaker
and I suspect obstructive sleep apnea. For any of you who've had a home sleep study and a
pacemaker
did the battery run machine have any effect or reaction on your
pacemaker
? Thank you for any comments.

TAVI booked
This long journey started with AF and saw an ablation, a valve replacement, valve repair and a
pacemaker
fitted! Although I had to take off almost 6 months before being allowed back to work full time, I have now been back for six months.

It's Your AFIB, stupid
In a few days, my
pacemaker
will be re-set. My doc stated that it was no doubt AFIB out-of-control causing fatigue, not CKD4.

Has anyone had ablation for Sinus Node reentrant Tachycardia? Or for IST?
Being the sinus node, the risk of damage during the procedure is high and if something were to permanently damage the sinus node during the ablation, a
pacemaker
would be my only option. Has anyone had their sinus node ablation? For IST or for SNRT? I'd love to know what your experiences were.

PVC's have arrived
As the
pacemaker
does not control the AF, just bypasses it, it seems amazing that these episodes have been so short, as in the past AF episodes always lasted many hours. It makes me wonder if my own reaction to pre
pacemaker
attacks of AF exacerbated it and made the episode longer. Interesting.

Clopidogril
Also been told I’m doing well with my
pacemaker
. Let’s hooe it continues. I go back to hospital 1 July and hope everything’s ok. What a year especially when you walk “40 mins and do the gym and eat healthy. Can start doing arm exercises as well.

Bradycardia - Slow Pulse Rate.
I presume if something is found wrong, I will need a
pacemaker
?

First year report - Linear Weight loss
It might be a coincidence that it was when they inserted an additional atrial lead and a replacement
pacemaker
. Last week I had a plate of sandwiches on Monday and a tea party on Wednesday, and my Apple Watch ECG told me I was in Atrial Fibrillation (AF).

To stop Verapamil or not
At almost exactly 1 week later I started a run of what turned out to be Aflutter which I was eventually hospitalised with and converted back to NSR using my
Pacemaker
(Overdrive) I left hospital with a prescription for Verapamil 120 which I have been taking since early April. 1 week after the conversion

Travel Insurance - What a palaver!
More scrutiny was given to these medications than the
pacemaker
I now have. I was asked which of my medications were to treat high blood pressure and which medications were to treat arrhythmia, etc.

Bisoprolol
I`m considering stopping bisoprolol as I`m frequently tired and lethargic.I thought for years it was my heart failure causing this,now I`m not convinced.My BP has always been low and the only reason I`m able to take bisoprolol is the fact that I have a
pacemaker
fitted and set at 60.

Worried stupid update
Hi just an update to add to my 1st "worried stupid " post It turns out the beta blockers weren't doing anything to correct his heart rate and the option of changing the
pacemaker
/adding wires isnt an option as his heart beat is strong it's just not beating correctly with the ectopic beats and the miss

AF and Pacemaker
Also I find now my pulse and HR are in the low 50's and sometimes lower.Saw the cardiologist and she suggest a
Pacemaker
. Has anyone else experienced this then had a
pacemaker
fitted. I am worried about the whole issue.
