@walkinggirl Thank you for replying to my question. Yes, I received a card that I keep in my wallet. Were any adjustments made to your pacer before you had the MRI?

Thank you.

@mbaisley Yes, it was turned off. I have an ICD and the MRI could cause unwanted shocks. A pacemaker only, (without the defibrillator part) may have a different protocol. Ask your electrophysiologist or cardiologist. What has been the experiences of others reading this? please share!
