Hyperemesis during pregnancy

Did anyone here have Hyperemesis during pregnancy? I feel like my last pregnancy is what messed me up forever. That was 5 years ago. with my 6 year old I puked so much I was on promethazine and Benadryl and was on iv's . I had home healthcare then he was born and I got pregnant right away. It was bad too but at 6 months I stated having tachycardia and was on bed rest and 10 days after my 5 year old was born I had an ablation. That seemed to be ok but unsuccessful because again I stated having fast rates . My ep specialist has avoided another ablation due to my age and how dangerous it would be given I the area they woul have to ablate. I was off and on meds until I just stopped meds and dealt with the extra beats until now. Ep doc says he believes with the ablation there was nickto the av node that is why I am bothered by the palpitations . But about 8 weeks ago I was feeing awful so they did a monitor and called me right away and said we want to put in a pacemaker asap because your heart is stopping 3.5-5 seconds and is in the 30's. I went I. Right away scared as hell with little info. But could I have avoided the pacemaker? I am not sure what to think. Is it because I didn't take meds and take care of my extra beats that I am now with a pacemaker?
