Early checkup

I rang and got an early check up because I didnt feel right. I was breathless going up hills and my pulse didnt go up. I asked them if the rate response was turned on she looked and said no and it should have been. She is going to ask the Prof if she can turn the upper rate up to 150. I wish they had done that right I've been very worried why I felt so flat. Does the rate response make a big difference to how you feel? After she turned it on I got really exhausted. Is my heart not used to all the ups and downs? Felt quite emotional again too. Also I could feel my heart thumping again through this seems to be settling down. ta for any comments Julie

Where do you ring for a checkup? Doctors office of manufacturer?

You know you're wired when...

You fondly named your implanted buddy.

My eight year old son had a pacemaker since he was 6 months old. He does very well, plays soccer, baseball, and rides his bike. I am so glad he is not ashamed of his pacemaker. He will proudly show his "battery" to anyone.
