Headache

I have a question, I am 4 1/2 weeks out from having my pacemaker surgery. I have intermediate AV node block. Since my two weeks check up, and adjustments to my Settings I experience being lightheaded and headaches every evening, seems like after I exert myself a little as far as taking a shower, doing small household chores,walking to the mailbox. Is anyone else experiencing this or has experienced lightheadedness and headaches every night. Thank you

Do  you check your blood pressure? Maybe the headaches and being lightheaded could be caused by a high BP.

 Hi thank you for responding.Yes I thought the headaches  were from high blood pressure , because after the first setting  changed I started having high blood pressure.  But since I was back to see the Tec on Friday and she changed my settings  again now I’m experiencing low blood pressure. I still have the same light headedness and headaches that last every night for a few hours.

The pacer systems are really very reliable. The main problem is the incompetent programming of them. If yours is working well for you, get on with life and enjoy it. You probably are more at risk of problems with a valve job than the pacer.
