My understanding of what you are feeling is from a setting within the pacemaker called a" rate response".
I have had my pacemaker for 3 years and have had the "rate response " setting adjusted several times because I did not like the "jumpy " feeling . So I have no idea if our equiptment is the same but I do validate your observation and encourage you to report it to your Mom and your Cardiologist. When I first got my pacemaker I was unsure about whether my observations were valid and whether to report them or not but I have found that I am more comfortable giving any and all feedback to my Cardiologist.
