pulse of 62 and feeling shaky
I’ve had a
pacemaker
since 2020, the last couple of weeks I’ve had a cold , apart from that I’ve been ok . I’ve noticed that my pulse has dropped to around 60/62 and ive felt fluttery and shaky . My
pacemaker
is set to bring my heart rate up should it drop below 60.

and I thought all was well since I’ve had no AF since I had it fitted back in June 2023. I had my
pacemaker
check yesterday at the pacing clinic and all was well except I am now having Ectopics but that’s no big deal , then late last nigh I didn’t feel quite right.

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.

MTHFR and Lupus
No one ever checked my homocysteine level until after I had Complete Heart Block and was implanted with a
Pacemaker
/defibulator. I have always felt that if the MTHFR was diagnosed before all the other autoimmune diseases, I may never have progressed to so many issues.

Waiting times........
A Clinical Physiology visit yielded the new that my
Pacemaker
check showed that the battery level dictated a replacement. Aware of the national discussions about waiting times I naturally asked the obvious question and was reassured with "2-3 weeks". !!
