Atrial Preference Pacing

I saw my EP on Monday, and some changes were made to my pacemaker because of high rate episodes. The atrial preference pacing feature was turned on in order to make the pacemaker keep up with these episodes in hopes that it will pace me out of the abnormal rhythms. I have been having strange feelings since these adjustments were made. When my heart rate gets up, the pacemaker paces me even faster to try and sustain a more normal rhythm. Has anyone had any experiance with this feature?

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.
