Pacemaker

Anyone out there with a pacemaker.

Re: Pacemaker

  • Adult or children?  I have rhythm/rate problems and was supposed to get a pacemaker when I was 19.  I freaked out, didn't do it and ended up moving out of state and the new dr didn't agree.  After exhausting many medication treatments, i'm currently holding out for the new drug that's in France, I can't remember the name but it affects only the rate in the heart, thus not lowering my blood pressure and making me pass out all the time like other beta blockers.
