Thanks Ian. I’ll see how it is and see my GP - Cardiologist if no better.  I have no confidence at all in the pacemaker technician in our area.  However I have an excellent GP and cardiologist.

You should "add Comment", rather than starting a new thread when answering others. It's a lot easier to follow.

I wouldn't waste time talking about my pacemaker, or my heart issues with a GP. There is a reason we go to specialists.  I'd not bother with a cardiologist either, unless he were an interventional cardiologist. But the bigger point is that if your heart's electrical system is whacked badly enough that you need a pacemaker, you need to be seeing an electrophysiologist. Doctors are good in their specialty but outside of that, you have no idea what damage they can do.

You know the difference between hardware and software.

I wasn't really self-conscious about it. I didn't even know I had one until around six or seven years old. I just thought I had a rock in my side.
