Hello all. I ran into this site a few weeks ago and gathered alot of information in anticipation of my PM surgery, which was yesterday. I'm on the mend and want everyone to know that I went in "equiped" with knowledged because of this club. I only had few questions to ask the medical staff since I was educated through the club. I'm looking forward to a long relationship here!

Very glad you did well, i am new here since December too. I am very indebted to the great people on here. They save the day, ( When my Dr, says thats odd, or not normal, people here say, hey I get that!) So, keep coming back and looking at forums and asking your questions. Drs just put them in, they dont tell you how to live with them!!! Soft hug, Ileen

I had my PM inplant in December of 2016. Welcome. This club has been very helpful. Glad you educated yourself. Wish I had. But things are getting better: Returned to the gym and Yoga classes (modified-no Downward Dog) about 3 weeks ago. Only problem I have is that I still get dizzy some days or at random. But after Yoga class yesterday, I noticed that I was not dizzy at all and had been prior to the class. Solution: Go back to my other excerises and modify if I have to. I also mowed my small back yard yesterday. I hired a gardener for the larger front yard, which I took care of before the PM. But you know what? It's a good thing. I could finish other erands or just enjoy the extra time.
Things will work out for you also. Having a support group helps. I haven't bumped into other individuals in my everyday life with PMs, unless I go to the cardiologist's office. But I am sure there are many more of us out there. So, yes, this group is a good source of understanding and information.

I'm glad all is going well for you, and hope you continue to find useful information here - I have had no problems either (2.5 years with my pacemaker now) and am grateful for all the experienced posters who share their knowledge - it's invaluable.
