Hi,
I've seen a few people write about leads coming loose from the heart or device. I was wondering how you know it has come loose, is there an intense pain, do you get shocked?
Thanks!

The pacer systems are really very reliable. The main problem is the incompetent programming of them. If yours is working well for you, get on with life and enjoy it. You probably are more at risk of problems with a valve job than the pacer.

Kyle,
From talking to my doctor about loose leads, he said that you would normally feel a lot of the same type of problems or sensations that you have before having the pm. Sometimes you will feel the a shock from feeling the pm pacing to correct the problem. In my readings, I haven't heard about intense pain, just discomfort, but that doesn't mean that it can't happen.
He also said that some people don't feel much at first, as some people only have their pm working occasionally (not like mine that paces all the time!)
Hope this helps,
Lenna
