My PM was installed in October this year. I have the occasional glass of wine or a beer about 3 times a week, only one glass.

I have had my pacer since 2005. At first it ruled my life. It took some time to calm down and make the mental adjustment. I had trouble sleeping and I worried a lot about pulling wires. Now I just live my life as I wish.
Wine with pacemaker?

No, pacemakers taste terrible.
The best answer will come from your EP or cardiologist. They know your condition far better than we do.
My cardiologist told me some time ago that one drink a day wouldn't hurt and may even be beneficial. Of couse SMBO immediately said "forget it". She knew the wheels were already spinning in my head. He didn't say how big "a drink" was. She's learned too much about me in the last 48 years. ;-)
Nah, I haven't had any in 13 years, now. One is harder than zero.
