Thanks so much everyone

Thanks so much for everyone's response to my message about receiving my first pacemaker on 4/19. You have all made it so much easier. Thanks again.

Hi,
Received my Medronic 4/19/13 after light-headedness and confusion that got worse with a recent increase of exercise. Was surprised because I never identified myself as a "heart patient". But, here I am, recovering and thankful after one week and complete reliance for an extra
30 beats per minute!
Still some dizziness and also aching in shoulder/inner arm.
Do you all wear medical IDs?
MD said not necessary, but to always have my card.
Already have learned much from your posts.
Nancy
