Shortness of breath

I got a PM Biotronik, and I have episodes of feeling I can't catch my breath, my BP 105/73 and heart rate 120. I got PM on April 28th this year, I have bedside monitor and they have not call and said anything is wrong. Has anyone had this happen, should I be worried!

Could be the rate response sensor acting up. Do you know, if your CLS sensor is switched on? I have a Biotronik with CLS, and I'm finding that it tends to cause inappropriate tachycardia even at rest sometimes. I don't think it's anything to worry about, but if it bothers you, you should inform your doctor. Maybe he can change settings to prevent these episodes. Good luck!

I don't recall a sensor switch, but will have to check out, going to call doctor if this keeps happening, when I got up this a.m. My heart rate is already up to 94. Thanks!
