What my pace clinic did a Mayo was to have me do various arm exercises to see if there was any interference or affect on my wires and ICD/Pacemaker.

We did find on particular exercise did in fact cause noise on one lead which device would see as AFIB. So I try to refrain form that exercise and/or movement.

@jc76 Thank you. What you did has never been suggested and sounds like an excellent idea. I will bring this up to my cardiac team. Appreciate your reply.
