pacemaker settings

Thanks for the response regarding heavy and tired legs after PM
I think it could be the setting it was paced 50 then 75 and legs nearly collapsed, doc then paced to 60 which seemed okay but heavy legs returned. I try to really exercise ,bike ride etc but that doesn't seem to help much.I have always been energetic but this has stopped me doing things even walking.

rest rest rest and more rest

I seem to be responding better after 5 mo rest and not going as far as I did last year in exercising is helpful.
Still have pain in my chest when I am really tired. Fatigue often comes upon me suddenly. Learning to narrow down what I do, go home to have lunch and rest then go out again if I am up to it.

Any comments?

I had a pacemaker when I was 11. I never once thought I wasn't a 'normal kid' nor was I ever treated differently because of it. I could do everything all my friends were doing; I just happened to have a battery attached to my heart to help it work.
