ELECTRICAL FLASH LIKE AN XRAY WHILE SLEEPING

Hello Everyone and Merry Christmas!

i got my pacemaker a year and a half ago. As I have mentioned in the past, it was an emergency situation and completely unexpected.

i have had a pretty easy time coping. I feel grateful. But last night I awoke with a jolt because of the following:

there was a flash of light that was a mix between a camera flash and an X-ray. With the flash I could get a visual of everything in my body particularly the skull.... teeth, etc. It felt electric. It jolted me awake and I had a terrifying few moments before I could go back to sleep.

has anyone else ever experienced this? Would appreciate any feedback!

thank you and merry Christmas!

Hello Grateful and Blessed

I'm 48 and got my PM at 47. Mine too was emergency. I've had that electrical jolt once since I got it 11mo ago. It hasn't happened again and not sure exactly when it happened the before. I just had a virtual check and everything was working fine so I'm not worried. Now 01/29/18 is another birthday for me, so now I have 2 birthday's. If you don't mind, could you share your emergency with me?

i just passed out on the sofa one day. My friend took me ER where the same thing happened in front of the staff. I had complete heartblock and flatlined for 30 seconds. I came to and it was quite a shock. I was instantly given a pacemaker with the information that I had a healthy heart but the electricity was messed up ... kind of like a beautiful home but the lights don’t work all of the time. 

I had been feeling a little off for a few months, but had no idea I had electrical issues!
