IMPORTANT QUESTIONS

I had a St. Jude Pacemaker installed on 10/22/2013. The pacemaker is set at 50 BPM and blood flow was at 150. On Dec 20th I had my pacemaker check and I had the sensitivity turned off and blood flow was increased to 200 since I was feeling light headed and unfocused. I do not know what all this means and I am still light headed and unfocused--what else can be done on my pacemaker to make me feel better? I am not taking any medications. Please help?

I would like to be able to make a suggestion, however, I don't know what you mean by blood flow, I've had my PM for a year and a half and never heard of blood flow. I have a Boston S. so that might be the difference. I am going to wish you luck and make way for someone who knows more than I do. There are a lot of folks that fill the bill on here, give them a little time. Jean

I've seen many posts about people being concerned about exercise after having a device so thought I would let you know that yesterday I raced my first marathon since having my pacemaker fitted in fall 2004.
