How often do you Merlin?

I'm curious about how frequently your cardio group monitors your pm via Merlin.

SO FAR.

Every four months and every night

My Merlin does an interrogation every four months but it also uploads information every night. I have an ICD and the clinic knows if I've been shocked and why. One time they called me and had me change my Coreg dose due to information they were receiving, this was in between scheduled interrogations. I wouldn't want to be without it

pm monitoring

I go in every three months for monitoring. I have had my pm for one year. As my battery ages, the doc says I will be monitored every two months and then once a month.

You know you're wired when...

You have a shocking personality.

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.
