The important thing is to recognize what this is due to and to share your feelings with someone else. There may be some support groups in your area. Also take heart that a pacemaker is a very low care animal and shouldn't impair your lifestyle in any way whatsoever. If there are other readers of this forum who have pacemakers they can share with you how little their life has been affected by it. I hope you find this information useful.
