Helicopters

Has anyone flown in a helicopter after PM or ICD placement? I am wondering about any magnetic stuff going on in/around the helicopter, the radios, etc.

Yes, I worked for Lifeflight which is a medic transport helicopter for about 6 months. I have a medtronic single wire PM. I flew several times a day and never had any issues with my pacemaker. Best of luck to you.

I feel so blessed to have this little gem implanted in me. When I think of the alternative it is quite overwhelming sometimes.
