Playsation and Rock Band

Not really a sport but only category it fit. I love my rock band on my playstation 3 but it does use radio freqency. The booklet does not mention pacers and I figure its low but I don't want to take a chance. Anyone into this game with a pacer? It is my de-stressor at the end of my day I hate to give up.

If your playstation does not seem to interfere and you don't have any symptoms... I think heckboy's suggestion is reasonable. If you want reassurance, ask at your next checkup, or give your EP office a call and ask! You can also email or call the manufacturer of your device. I think a lot of "interference" issues surround how your PM is programmed from what I have read and understand. I imagine it is also dependent on how much you are paced...

I don't want to give up anything either... as a senior citizen I seem to have to reduce to many other things in my life!

... to alter my life in any significant way because of my PM. If it doesn't bother you to play the game, keep playing it. I suggest that you keep a log of when you play the game and if your EP notices interference at your next checkup and the times match up with your gameplay, let it go and find a new game.

Sound fair?

Rock on!

I play electric guitar and game with my kids all the time. You will be fine. If any interference occurs (which is hightly unlikely), stop waht you are doing and the symptoms will go way.

Good point, swedeheart! Even if there is interference, your EP can usually tweak your PM to overcome it. I should have though of that because it once happened to me.

It doesn't bother me

I play rock band on the xbox 360 and have no trouble. Both of my guitars are wireless and I have had no interference. I have had my pm for almost 3 months and no problems have been seen by my EP. Keep rocking!!

You know you're wired when...

Bad hair days can be blamed on your device shorting out.

I'm 35 and got my pacemaker a little over a year ago. It definitely is not a burden to me. In fact, I have more energy (which my husband enjoys), can do more things with my kids and have weight because of having the energy.
