I have been having my PM checked monthly for a couple months now. I am due to go again on the 23rd. I have been feeling more tired and yesterday I was bending over at the knees and suddenly I toppled over and lost my balance for no apparent reason. I didn't feel light headed, but then why did I lose my balance so suddenly? I have been reading posts and it seems like when your PM goes in ERI mode, most of you say you could feel it? What are some of the symptoms you feel? Can it affect your blood pressure? Thanks!

Vertigo

Hi,
Vertigo is a loss of balance caused by an upset in the fluid of the inner ear. It can happen suddenly and be an isolated case of it. The effect can be anything from a momentary loss of balance to a full blown attack of dizziness. This is quite different from lightheadedness where there is a drop in blood pressure or flow from missed heart beats or suddenly standing up.

Your anxiety is normal. It takes some of us a little time to adjust to the new friend. As much as they love you, family and friends without a device just cannot understand the adjustment we go through. That is why this site is so valuable.

My pacer has been in the ERI mode since 8/30. and I can feel it that same day. My biggest sign was the strange heart beats. I am not sure about losing your balance part. The only thing you can do is to get a pacer check and you will know for sure.
