For the replies and comments. I am pain free and itching to take this pacer for a test run. I know, be patient. But still, I got a new lease as they say.

Hi guido911 and welcome. I'm on month 7, almost 8 (St. Jude CRT). Hang in there. You may sail through your recovery without a problem or care in the world. Or, you may have some bumps and scares along the way. Either way, all the wonderful people out here are here to help.

Best wishes and prayers to you for a smooth, carefree recovery.

Thanks for the well wishes all, and someday I hope to be the one telling newbies the same positive wishes.

Running again

Hi, I am 4 weeks post PM insertion and started my running also. Feels great. Enjoy the run on Thursday. Any plans for a marathon/half/10k etc.?

Member Quotes

I had a pacemaker when I was 11. I never once thought I wasn't a 'normal kid' nor was I ever treated differently because of it. I could do everything all my friends were doing; I just happened to have a battery attached to my heart to help it work.
