Had my cardiac visit today and all my restrictions were lifted today. I think the drs like to scare you and always like to remind you why you have your device. But I am just so happy to be alive and have my pm so I could live a lot longer! I was told I am pacing at 99% because I was not pacing equally. But now it is time to not always think about this disease and go on with life and I plan on living it to the fullest. I am only 42 and I refuse to give up! God is good! Amen!

Even at 99% pacing your heart would be very likely to continue beating even if the pacer failed. It would just drop to some lo rate like 40bpm and you would feel lousy.

I've asked to have mine tested a couple of times and I still manage at 30 bpm.

So enjoy yourself and don't get hit by a falling comet or the likes.
