Fit Bit

I have a 2nd degree heart block but doing well with my pacemaker for the past 5 years. My hubby wants to buy me a Fit Bit for Christmas but I want to find out if it's safe to wear, and doesn't interfere with my pacemaker. Any thoughts on this?

It's perfectly safe! The only thing like that we need to avoid are the electronic scales that measure bmi, and sometimes heart rate monitors don't work accurately. All other gadgets are ok.

I wear one as it is great motivation to exercise. Originally I asked my Cartiologist if it would be a problem.
