Jacquie802 Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Hi,I'm just curious if anyone with a pacemaker has found whether or not it helps with their POTS. I have an arrhythmia and the ablation can't get one of the pathways since it is soo close to my natural pacemaker....If they get that then I would need a pacemaker, basically.Just curiosu to see if a pacemaker has helped anyone with POTS.Jacquie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJVDK Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Jacquie,Please be carefull with this one. I know that the Pacemaker did not make things better for me , it fact now it is worse. My last abltion I had to have a pacer place due to my hreat rate going to low. The thing is your heart still has it own rythem and I still get odd beats, and tacky some times. Please look at some of the old post as I know this one has come up before. I would just be carefull, as I would not want you to fell worse then you are now. As that what happen to me. My qualtiy of life has never been the same since I got my pacer. I don't mean to scare you but talk to your doctor about all the problems woth having pots and a pacemaker, and I would even get a 2nd option before you do anything.Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
