Hi, @sharbear, and welcome. It sounds like a lot has changed for your loved one in a short time, and that can certainly feel overwhelming for you both.

If you don’t mind me asking, could you share a little more about how your loved one has been day-to-day since getting the pacemaker? Have the dizziness, heavier breathing, and bloating been constant or do they come and go? Have there been any changes in eating, drinking, or sleeping?

Symptom's come and go part of me thinks it could be normal aging process but not sure that’s why Dr has asked for CT scan and I’m very worried about any contract because of low kidney function. Some appetite loss but nothing to be concerned about again it’s sporactic. She was dizzy the other day again.
