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

I will never turn down prayers. Thank you. I’m week out now from my pacemaker surgery. I had the ablation last Wednesday and the node was sleeping, as they say, and Friday the pacemaker. So I have been through those procedures, and can give you some information as you learn more on Friday. I’m always checking on here to see and talk to others. Stay in touch!

PS. The stress of cardio version and tachycardia incidents would most certainly cause some PTSD , I was in the ER for similar symptoms in April , and it took my body 6-7 weeks to recover from that stressor!
