Leads Replacement

After my last visit to the doc my leads are found to be on their way out. I still have 2 years left on my 2nd pacemaker and settings were changed to make the leads last longer. My question--I have had at least 2 occasions where docs wanted an MRI. They still do. My pacemaker doc seems reluctant to changed leads to MRI safe leads now that MRI safe pacers are out. I know it's risky business to take out old leads, but I'd like some feedback from all of you.
