pacemaker

Avatar f tn My 66 yr old father had to have a pacemaker inserted after his heart rate dropped dangerously low. He has had it in for 9 days now and is experiencing moderate to severe lightheadedness and diziness when he lays down or gets up. This usually recedes after about 20 mins to a half hour. Is it normal? His doctored mentioned that this was normal but every blog I have read mentions dizziness being an indication of possible malfunction of the leads. What are your thoughts?
Avatar f tn Finally with this test, it shows that yes, something is not right. Does a pacemaker seem like the best treatment? If given a choice that's what I would choose, I'd like to be fixed and not treat with medication. I'm 41 and don't want to spend the rest of my life on medication. I've been a wreck since the tilt test in July and my appointment is Monday 8/17 with Electro-Cardiologist.
Avatar f tn My cardiologist and I have entertained the idea of a pacemaker for the past 3 years since my last ablation but he was hoping to wait until I was older to do this. We seriously discussed a pacemaker during this stress echo, as he says he thinks I will feel much better with the help of a pacer. My questions are what are the long term risks of implanting a pacemaker in a young 27yr old female? Is there a chance that pacing could cause CHF or cardiomyopathy down the road?
1735424 tn?1357433558 I had some gastro pain a couple of weeks after vic was introduced (week 10), this resolved after a couple of weeks. HGB, Platelets, WBCs and ANC were all normal prior to tx and became quite low. Rescue drugs were necessary to keep going. I was in a trial and completed a 43 week tx 6 months ago. It was tough but ok as I pretty much expected. Good luck with your treatment, what week are you in?
751174 tn?1233499065 I spent a month in hospital, where I under went numerous cardiac investigations. My Cardiologist considered inserting a Pacemaker, but after discussing my case history with his collegues, he concluded not to taking my age into consideration. Wolf Parkinson White Syndrom was also suspected, but wasn't officially confirmed.

Good news is now my pacemaker is set for it not to be ever turn off..
Avatar f tn The pacemaker itself should not be a deterent from having an ablation. I've had a pacemaker for 6 years (because of an ablation actually), and then had another ablation about a year ago. Unfortunately, the ablations don't work for me, but I have IST, not SVT so hopefully they're more effective for that.
Avatar f tn My pacemaker battery had been dead for over a year and a half, and I just now was told that the pacemaker will have to be removed because it can damage the heart if it doesn't have a battery. Is this true? Incidentally, my pacemaker had not been activated for several years, as it was set for the minimum and didn't ever have to kick in.
Avatar f tn I have had numerous surgeries including the Fontan in 1987 with a revision of the Fontan in 2006, where at that time I also had a Medtronic Enrhythym Pacemaker install. 3 weeks ago I had a Pacemaker replacement due to the fact my battery on my Pacemaker was running low. The new Pacemaker installed is a Medtronic Adapta. Since the new pacemaker my Heart beat has been all over the place. My 1st Enrhythym was paced at 80 bpm, and it pretty much stayed like that for 5.
Avatar n tn i had 3 open heart surgery and on my 2nd. pacemaker.. my first pacemaker last me for 18yrs. and just got my 2nd. pacemaker Dec.2006.. my pacemaker was implanted in my upper chest on the right side.. only thing i hate the surgery doctor told me he would use the same cut as the other pacemaker but when i woke up he cut me in another spot.. well i can say.. ask your doctor his he using the same cut as the first pacemaker was in..
Avatar f tn Do you have a pacemaker? The best is to check with your doctor or pacemaker technician. I don't know what can it cause the heart functioning abnormality if you have the inverted T waves? Anyone knows? It also depends if you're a pacemaker dependent or not. I'm not a pacemaker depend. I go well with the equipment which marks "Pacemaker user caution". If I found my heart beats abnormally, then I stop using it and try again after the heart settle.
Avatar n tn Hi, I'm sorry about your mom. Its my understanding that they don't "stop" the pacemaker, Nature takes it course regardless of the pacemaker. I went through this with my mom.
Avatar n tn My normal pulse rate with out pacemaker is 54 ppm. My dual lead pacemaker is set at 70 ppm, some people with pacemakers have the pacemaker rate set below their normal heart Resting rate Ex. normal rate 50 ppm Pacemaker set at 45 ppm. What determines the optimun pulse rate for the pacemaker? My Doctor is willing to set it at any rrrrrrrrrrate I choose. I am 86 years old in good physical shape,play tennis do nautilis and swim several times a week.
Avatar n tn I don't believe a pacemaker is used to control AFib. Perhaps your father has other heart problems. The most common use for a pacemaker is to keep the heart from beating too slow, or stopping. Some times a PM is used when the heart electrical system has to be totally shut down, in which case there would be no AFib or other arrhythmia, but this is not done to my knowledge, to control AFib.
Avatar f tn Pacemaker batteries will not run out unexpectedly. When a battery is running low, the elective replacement indicator (ERI) is activated. Physicians can detect this activation during a routine office visit. In addition, the battery status and the general functioning of the pacemaker can be tested over the telephone. This is generally done every one to two months.
Avatar m tn You may be able to feel the pacemaker under your skin as the pacemaker is typically placed just below the skin. This area will be sore after surgery, but as time passes the pacemaker should become less noticeable.
Avatar m tn my mother had a pacemaker implant ans was told that if she is ok in the next three weeks it will be removed. is this possible? To remove the pacemaker?? so why was it necessary to do this in the first place?
1530342 tn?1405016490 But other breaks for corporate jets, yachts and racehorses have a minimal impact on the budget and provide Democrats with vivid fodder for campaign attack ads. Throwing a few of these into the deal could avert a few headaches for Republicans and allow Democrats to claim a moral victory.
Avatar f tn I just had a dual lead pacemaker put in 3 days ago to control accelerated junctional rhythm. The same night of surgery I had ajr of 135 it had overridden my pacemaker. I continue to have junctional rhythms and very rarely is my heart rate,at 85 which is what pacemaker is set at. I can't walk from one room to another without heart racing and out of breath. I feel horrible.. Will this get better as maybe my heart is irritated? I feel worse than. Before pacemaker.
Avatar f tn I also understand a pacemaker would treat AFib only if your had a full shut-down and are are operating under full-time pacemaker timing. I could be wrong on this point, I am not a pacemaker patient myself. What has you doctor said about your symptoms?
Avatar f tn hi i have a dual chamber lead pacemaker and my pacemaker clinic believes my pacemaker lead had either dropped or dislodged and is pacing me where i don't need pacing it's my question is can the leads cause pvcs how can a venogram check the position my leads.
Avatar m tn my wires/leads stick out under my skin a little more then rest of my pacemaker, but i dont know if this is common since my pacemaker is placed on my right side of chest. shoulder pain and burning sensation with pacemaker kind of work as a team, is there anything that i'm doing wrong? i'm not tugging or pulling on anything just sitting around.
Avatar n tn There should be no problem on a flight with a pacemaker. There are no magnetic fields that could interfere with the function of a pacemaker.
