buzzing sound

I have a buzzing sound coming from pacemaker. I've had it interogated last week and was told it was doing exactly what it was supposed to do.pacemaker ok and all 3 leads ok on both ends.My wife says she's also heard it. This is 3rd pacemaker put in . 1st had a recall and 2nd battery life ran out and now this is 3rd one. So I am a little concerned when I hear a buzz coming from it.I would like to think its coming from something else but theres nothing else on me. If anyone else has had it buzz please comment. Thanks

BUZZING

It could be your hearing or something you have not thought of. External noise.Even a wasp or an insect. Pacemakers do not buzz.

That buzz isn’t in your head my friend

I just had that happen. I am currently waiting for the dr to call. But I think I know why it happened. I was holding my iPad like a book against my chest.then my pace maker was going off, and I was looking all around me, at first I thought it was my iPad. Well my iPad has a cover with magnetic strips in it. I think the magnetic pull made it go off. I just hope I didn't pull out anything 😳👼🏼Have a good night. Good luck to you, love Carol

You know you're wired when...

You run like the bionic man.

I'm 35 and got my pacemaker a little over a year ago. It definitely is not a burden to me. In fact, I have more energy (which my husband enjoys), can do more things with my kids and have weight because of having the energy.
