Hi all

Not been on here for a good while now. Just wondered who is still on here who may remember me from a couple of years back. Anything happened in last few years of interest?

.....good to hear from you after quite some time...if you hang around here in PMC you will see comments from many of the old gang...

Electric Frank and some others are no longer with us...really sad losses...but....

There are quite a few Old Buzzards that still hang about, lurking in their 'cyber trees' that you will remember....now it would be most tactless of me to single out any names....SO...

How about Don and IAN MC..??....

I will not pick out any of the Ladies either...SO..

Tracey, Inga, step forward.

So..whats new...??..well PMC is as well populated as ever, still doing a great service to the PM community, so many thanks to Blake/Admin and all the Moderators.

As a PMC 'lifer' you get to see how so many questions/issues keep popping up year after year..but..hey-ho, there are a lot of people out there who are really in need of good advice and solid support.

PMC always delivers

Ronaldo, welcome back on board....so.... tell us..how has it been for YOU ??

Good to see you are still on here. I remember all the names you listed. All have at soome time posted comments that were helpful and made me feel better.

An update on me is that i now get PM reports at each check up after much battling. I also have a new wonderful PM technician who is the best medical person i have ever dealt with. I owe a lot to her for making me feel better. She explains things really clearly in a way i understand. Nothing is off limit in our discussions.

She has allowed me to pursue the option of having my lower limit reduced from initially 60bpm to now having it set at 40bpm. I now feel much better mentally and my PM is being used very little. These are my figures from the last year, that i got this week....

AS-VS 99.7%
AS-VP 0.3
AP-VS 0.1%
AP-VP 0.1 %

I have had my PM for 6 years now and my remaining battery longevity is predicted at 8 years.

I am very pleased with these figures and am so glad i fought all the battles i did. I am even having conversations with my technician to try a monitor when my battery runs out to see if i will need to have another one.

How about you Tattoo Man? How have you been? Any developments with you?

Best wishes

Ronaldo

I just want to share about the quality of life after my pacemaker, and hopefully increase awareness that lifestyles do not have to be drastically modified just because we are pacemaker recipients.
