Zumba and LaBlast redux

When I posted about doing Zumba before my PM, a supportive member said this: "You are probably going to be very pleasantly surprised at your new stamina! Heart block is more tiring than we think it is, often we are more symptomatic than we realize." 

This week, at the very end of 3 weeks post PM (I'd been walking in the meantime), I started both Zumba and LaBlast, and sure enough, I feel great! My stamina has really improved, and I can do most of the arm moves, even. Obviously nothing overhead, and I'm being conservative with my left arm motions. But I haven't been this peppy in years! Since I didn't know I HAD heart block, I had no idea how much better I would feel with the PM. Thanks for your support, folks, and keep on truckin'!

I agree.  Symptoms sneak up on you and quickly become ones new normal.  Glad for you. Enjoy!

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.
