Junctional Rythym- Update

Hello All,

A couple of weeks ago I had an appt with my Cardiologist and the Medtronics Tech. At that time they said I now have Junctional Rhythm. They had me wear the holter monitor for 24 hours. The nurse called me this week and said that a different Dr. in the group had read the results and says that I have normal sinus rhythm, I do have 5 irregular beats per hour and that my heart rate was on average 64. My pacemaker is set at 50. I am going to see my Cardiologist on Tues. Hopefully I will get better clarification of what's going on. I still feel the fatigue, weakness, and palpitations.

Take care,
CJ

they should be able to clarify everything for you. Why is your pm set at 50 is you still feel fatigue, weakness, and palpitations?

Good luck at your cardiologist!
