i have a super duper pacemaker called an Cardiac Resyncronisation Therapy - Defibrillator. not only does it have three pace making leads it can give off defibrillator shock to restart my heart if necessary. All thanks to the British NHS.

My husband had a pacemaker implanted when he was 44. He has a condition where his heart can race then suddenly drop in beats, causing him to black out. Since he's had the pacemaker, he's had a lot fewer blackouts!

doxierescued, Sorry for your loss 💔 My dad is aged 84 and had a pacemaker fitted over 4 weeks ago. The sad thing is he's still a heavy smoker (smokes 20 a day) 💔

is pacemaker expensive. my aunt was going for a routine check up of her pace maker when the doc suggested she gets the new modernised pace maker and she went to the waiting room to her husband to ask him if she should he said why not. those were the last words they spoke to each other . the doc made a mistake and killed her

Jew for Yeshua, microwaves don't affect them nowadays but magnets do so you have to be frisked at an airport instead of going through those security things & you can't have an MRI. Also you need to keep mobile phones away at least 10 cm away....fine to make a call but don't keep it in your chest pocket on the same side as the pacemaker.

I've had a pacemaker since I was 24. I've also had surgery for an ASD repair (Atrial Septal Defect aka Hole in the Heart) when I was 9.
