kjb I'm new also and I did have the throbbing neck also and fast beats too,they did adjust my meds and all that stopped however I think they may have to tweek my device next week when I go back for I still get sluggish once and awhile. It won't hurt to at least call the doctor and see what they suggest you do..good luck

thank u

Hi KJB, You should contact your dr/pacemaker centre and organise an appointment for two reasons, primarily to make sure the pacemaker is still functioning as it should and also because its recording facility may have picked something up that could explain your symptoms.

But defo get it checked out :)

Kindest Regards

In fact after the final "tweaks" of my pacemaker programming at the one year check up it is working so well that I forget I have it.
