Improving symptons.

Hi all

I just received my 5th pacemaker. Since late teens I have been plagued with heart problems due to a heart murmur and rheumatic fever in my childhood days. I know that I have complete heart block, AF and heart failure. I have redundant leads which have never been removed and so far do not present any problems. As I get older I appear to have developed more symptoms and of course I am on various medication. To what extent might the pacemaker help my various heart problems?

Thanks for your reply. I agree entirely and I do believe that I would not be here but for the fact that I do my best to maintain healthier lifestyle choices. I am certain that the physicians who have treated me over the years have done their best and it is up to me to do my part. In the past if I over-indulged I felt the consequences, so now I make a point of making better choices for my health.
