PM not adjusted right? Or?

Hi... I just wanted to ask I have had my PM since Oct 09
and once in awhile I still get the short of breath business
I have had my PM read over the phone and in person
and they say all is well... however I am wondering if I need to have the PM interrogated again? Dual PM for low pulse is why I had to get one of these....other then that I am good to go
so just wondered if anyone had SOB and had the PM adjusted for that? I am not on any meds and only take vitamins.
any info or suggestions?
Thanks again
breezy:)

why

Why do you have the pm? There are a lot of thing that can cause sob, but yes, sometimes it's something that can be fixed with settings.

When they tell you all is well they mean it's working properly, that may or may not mean it's adjusted ideally for you.

Need some changes maybe?

I've been reading the manual for my new ADAPTA and the available settings have really become sophisticated. It may take a few tries to get them right. An appt with the Medtronic rep might be an excellent idea. I don't see how the usual doc or even cardiologist would understand the whole thing.

Hi there, people are probably fed up of me keep saying this, but I got my rate response switched on and I feel amazing. Ask if yours is on or off. HH
