Non-Pulmonary Vein AF and Amiodarone
If this one fails I'm told I will need a
pacemaker
, which is all rather worrying. I'm a fit 65 year old. I've been on Amiodarone for three months, now my cardiologist want to extend it by another three months. Has anyone suffered any problems after taking Amiodarone for six months?

Cold remedies 🤧
Can I take day/night nurse tablets for a cold with a
pacemaker
fitted? I’m assuming no to day nurse because of caffeine?

One of my partner's aunts, who was having heart problem , went into a hospital to have a

inplanted. But they found stage 4 lung cancer somehow in the process.

Asymptomatic AFIB - What's Next
I've had a non-defibrating
pacemaker
that long for another issue. I transmit my
pacemaker
data by telephone (using a Medtronic device) every 90 days, and have an in-person check twice annually. My in-person check last week revealed that I am in AFIB 40% of the time.

Pacemaker and covid
I have tachycardia bradycardia and will be having a dual chamber
pacemaker
fitted on November 25th, hoping it still goes ahead with the new lockdown announcement last night, would I be classed as clinically vulnerable, I didn’t get a letter to shield last time as I was only diagnosed last week.

Pacemaker set base heart rate
At the
pacemaker
clinic yesterday I got them to change my base rate from 50 to 60. With the base rate at 50 I thought I was getting hypoxia, cerebral hypoglycaemia etc., as I felt rough on waking or after sitting for a while… e.g. I could not concentrate enough to play chess.

Pacemaker check ?
How can they know anything without my ordinary
pacemaker
being scanned? l like to be reassured once a year. l usually go to outpatients at Bristol Royal lnfirmary and this can be reached through a side door without going through the main building. Any ideas please, Sue.

He told me that if I was 65 I’d need a
pacemaker
no hesitation but as I’m 47 I’d need it replaced too many times so he’d discuss the options at my appointment. 10 days on I’ve had my appointment today as as I’m getting a few symptoms with the pauses he’s decided a
pacemaker
is the only option.

SpO² of around 91 no problems but headaches often and resting hr of 40bpm
Should I be having a
pacemaker
and if so would it help? I am now 64 not on any drugs other than naproxen for a cervical spinal stenosis. Thanks for reading.

Ablation Age Limit ?
After the procedure he told me that it probably could not be repeated (if necessary) and the next option would be a
pacemaker
. Has anyone else had this experience, or is this just a matter of personal opinion by the consultant ?

They did say it was borderline for a
pacemaker
, but hopefully the medication can do this instead. Can i ask when did people return to work, i have a very physical job, i work in a kitchen. My doctor has said not yet as i have been though something major. Can i ask opinions on this please?

The am four weeks in to having
pacemaker
now and I have started to increase my activity as I’m back to work next week. I’ve done some ironing and light housework including going up the stairs a few times.
