Go cart, ice skating

I'd ask your EP about go-carts.  The issue is the engine right at your back. Probably, but I'd check.  I don't think mine would be happy but he's way conservative with me.

Yo're probably not going to be able to ice skate until December but there's nothing that will prevent you from it.

What can you do?

Asking about ice skating reminds me of the old joke, "Doctor will I be able to play the violin after my surgery."

Doctor: Yes, of course.

Patient: That's wonderful, doctor! I never could before!

So

If you were able to ice skate before, you can do it now.

Don't know anything about go-carts.

 

dont see any reason why not

yes and you can drive a car and ride a motorcycle and skydive, etc...the pacemaker does not limit you from these activities in any way.

You know you're wired when...

You have a high-tech ticker.
