THIS PACER CHICK IS FEELING SO TIRED!! ZZZZZZZZZ

Hello fellow Pacer Chicks and boys!! CABG PATCH especially!

1st PM dual. July 24th - no medication.

Right guys! need advice.... for the last 10 days of so I have felt absolutely shattered...... limbs achy, tired, and I am sure if I close my eyes right now... I will fall asleep zzzzzzzzzz!!

I have been going to bed early and sleeping most of that time. I saw my cute pacing tech guy last week who said that Gerry (Pacemaker) continues to do well and nothing to do with him!

I was taking anti-biotics for a tooth infection but finished those last week.......

You know that feeling you get when you missed a meal, you go a bit shaky a bit wobbly.... light headed??? (bit like when you have just seen George Clooney!!) well, I am feeling a bit like that. I have just made a Doc appointment for Wednesday as I am a bit worried. I have been fine since having Gerry until 10 days ago.

So, any advice would be very welcome!! Take care,

Love & Hugs, Loopy Lou xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

but I think it's the Toprol increase. I'm going to give a few more days to see how it goes. Since my increase, I'm also 100% atrial paced. Yikes.


I hope you get to feeling better soon,

Angelie

Luv ya

Hey Lou!!! Well, that's a bit what I feel like sometimes. Yeah, I agree about the George Clooney part- he's amazazing!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL. I willl keep you in my thoughts and prayers, I should be getting my test results back this week, so I hope everything goes well with the both of us. :) Feel better, Sydney

Stay quite delectable!

diet changes?

Are you staying hydrated and eating enough protein?

Is it all the time or on exertion? If it's on exertion, the pm could need reprogrammed and they aren't catching it on the reports. If that's the case, they can see what's going on with a stress test. If it's all the time, it's unlikely it's the pm. But if he's really really hot, you might need it checked a few more times just to be sure LOL

Um, you're not pregnant, are you??

Finally I find people feeling like I do. I had my PM put in early July and then the lead shifted and had to have a revision a week later. Ever since, I have had the feeling of lightheadedness(not a word!) The Doctor said it's not my pacemaker and that it hasn't even fired. (I had a 3rd degree block) I also had a physical two weeks ago and was sure my blood work would show something and guess what??? All came out perfect. My only other thought was to go see a ENT and see if it's vertigo..although I doubt it. I think it has something to do with the PM...??? Any thoughts out there?
I hope you start to feel better. I know how your feeling and it's not good!
