SLEEPING

It seems a good idea to have your pacemaker set to a lower beat at night to help you sleep and save the battery. The idea appeals to me. However if you travel abroad which I do where night becomes day effectively , what happens then? Any comments. Cheers Peter

sleep mode is a good idea, however, when traveling, you are stuck with your original sleep mode settings.

Peter,
if you need your PM. set to a lower rate to get to sleep, then you will have to reset the timing for the new time zone.
If you stay away for long periods, this may be worth the hassle.
It's a few minutes work for a technician, but arranging the timing, (to suit the departure date), may be a problem.

One alternative, is to compromise on the sleep rate.

Best wishes,
John

I managed to talk them into making my low limit 55 which helped with sleep since I was used to a 40 to 52 while sleeping before getting my unit. Rick
