Thanks for the response. I have very diligent about my left arm movements as well. From what I was told after the procedure, the leads were stitched in and one with a medical screw. 😕, anyways lol. The Medtronic rep that visited me the following day to help set up the app, was saying he would think it would be good for about 12 years. 🤞. That’s one thing I’m trying not to think about as well, sense the mental healing is just as important. Thank you for being here!

Jason , I can identify with the fear and anxiety associated with pacemakers. On Fri I have an appointment with 2 drs to discuss the possibility/probability of getting a Pacemaker and having an ablation of the AV node . I’ve spoken to several other people who have the same feelings of fear and anxiety. I’m just trying to be positive and accepting if a pacemaker will be the best course of action for me .
Remember, you are not alone , there are many people who can support you and ease your fears , you’ll be in my prayers, if that’s ok ! Nora
