Medronic Micra AV is out

Hello!

The new leadless Medtronic Micra AV is out and a few people have received it. I was wondering if anyone here is thinking about getting it or going through the process?

Thanks!

Pacemaker rejection

After rejecting two pacemakers that were placed under my skin the doctors thought gold-plated was the answer but because of my skin conditions they stopped that route and last July 30th I had a micro and planted in myself got off of steroids and at this point have had no complications with the Micra

Wow!

still some way to go before leadless technology will be suitable for each one of us.  

Big but

Since it resides in the RA, it's not useful for SSS(?).  FWIG, it's just for heart block. For other electrical  problems, I can't see how they avoid PICM or what to do about it if it develops.
