Have had pacemaker for almost 7 yrs. went along for first 4 years having arrythms many nights , skipped beats many nights, was affecting my balance, then. Two years ago startred researching, found out that there are things that triggered mine , like alcohol , any kind and very small amounts ( no more glass of wine before dinner) . Getting too hot working yard, getting too upset over things . Started to chsnging my lifestyle to try to avoid these things, now my pacemaker dr says that I have arrythms less than one percent of time. They also gave me a latitudes ( small machine that is connected to internet all the time, is on network but not active, the dr checks in on my pacemaker automatically from time to time without my even knowing) AFib never goes away, but it less active.
