I get better advise here than at Drs

Hello all, and hope everyone had Happy Holidays. Last week went to cardiologists for pacer check, the tech said I am now totally dependent on my pacemaker, I was in active AV Mobitz II block during the test as matter of fact. Now here is what I am astounded about. Six months ago, he told me I was pacing 0 percent atrial and 36 percent ventricle and had about 10 years left on my battery. This time, I am 100 percent both atrial and ventrical and only 3 years left on my battery! I was to say the le...

I just wanted to let everyone know that I had my 2week check up on Wens. 19th and the Doc said that everything was going ok.

It seemed like a lot to me but the doctors said that there was nothing to worry about as long as I was doin...

Merry Christmas

To All I send wishes for a very Merry Christmas filled with the joy of Christ's birth and His promises to us. When I think of how God gave us His son I am in awe even though I know the story by heart and have since I was a tot. The message always brings me "tidings of comfort and joy" as the song says. We had such a lovely Christmas Service today. If any are interested, Saddleback Church where Rick Warren is Senior Pastor, FOX News was present again this year to record our Christmas Services...

Approved Exercise Equipment & Accessories

My wife received an ICD 15 months ago & is doing well. However, her doctor has advised her to lose weight & get in shape. She is willing to use a elliptical trainer - but, all the ones I've seen have heart-rate monitors in the handles (you place your hands around the metal hand-holds & they measure your heart rate). I am leery of these since she says that her doctor told her not to stand on a weight scale that determines fat content (similar electrical method?). Anyone have any knowledge, experi...

Heavy heartbeat?

I have a pacer and I have noticed that I feel a heavy "beat" sometimes. It has been happening more often now and I am just wondering if anyone out there has had the same problem. Kind of like someone has turned on the bass of my PM(LOL).
