My Pacemaker details❤️

First thank you  🙏 Gemita and Lavender for your interest and welcome 🤗 

 I will add a bit more information about my device and while I live in Australia over 50 years I was born and raised in Slovenia 🇸🇮...Europe 
I am not on any medications and I was fitted with  Medtronic:Ensura DR MRI SureScan Pacemaker....Model: EN1DR01 on 22/04/2016. But on 27/04/2016 ; while still in hospital they find out one of the leads did not function,so in we go again🤔 I am paced about 24 % of the time,apparently mostly while I sleep. 

Apart from the the surprise and other injuries I didn't not have any issues with my Pacemaker or Heart since. First 6 months were harder; not so much about the Pacemaker but more about the fact I didn't  have any memory of the actual fall and what ensued ....and still don't!? My husband was with me on that day and feels the gap's 💝...he was in front of me and did not see the actual fall...only the painful 😓 aftermath ⁉️We were about 2 hours away from any Hospital...Life happens in its own time 🙏🏻  I Hope you don't struggle to much with my English and storytelling!? 
Does anyone know how to include - insert some pictures? Gemita I see you got profile picture ... I like to do that as well. Thanks everyone. Always Stay safe and well  ♥️   Happy New Year...2023💞  Thank our Hearts 🥰 daily...Life is beautiful

Your English is fine Millie and so is the story-telling

Thank you for the update.  As you will see from my Bio, I have the exact same pacemaker as you.  So does my husband, although he only has a single lead pacemaker.  I hope you get good service from your device from now on and that the battery will last for a while longer.

Thank you for letting us know your pacing percentage.  I pace 100% in my upper chamber (right atrium) and only about 4% in the right ventricle (lower chamber).  We will all have very different pacing percentages depending on our settings, our pacing requirements and our health condition(s). 

You know you're wired when...

You have a T-shirt that reads “Wired4Sound”.

In fact after the final "tweaks" of my pacemaker programming at the one year check up it is working so well that I forget I have it.
