I hope and pray that everything works out the best for you. I hope that I'll be still talking with you on here for many years to come. Life is so precious, and sometimes we just take it for granted! I know I have.
Before I went through all of this, I never really gave it much of a thought. Figured I would live to be an old man, much older than I am now. Both of my parents lived to be close to 90.
Today was the best day I've had in the last two months! I am still sore from having surgery twice in exactly the same place within 16 days, but I can finally tell that I'm feeling bette.
I do have a question for everyone, "how many of you have had skipped heart beats with your pacemaker".
My heart will be beating fine, then just skip a beat, and when it happens I get a pain in the center of my chest. It's happened a few days, and it domething to get use to.

I was on some medicine that was supposed to keep my heart on a regular heart beat, but was in the hospital to change my medicine and when it didn't work the way doc wanted it to he said the only thing left was a pacemaker. I've not had any problems with it at all. So see the doc in couple weeks and maybe/will see what happens. (shortshot80)

To hear your description I think I would have to say I do. Not all the time but when it occurs I'm thinking you can cut that out anytime now and I may not experience it for eons and then other times it seems to last for eons. I feel like my PM and heart beat cause a traffic jam.
