Went for my 3 month post op heart procedure checkup yesterday at San Diego State University . I was so excited as they were supposed to tweak my pacemaker to allow optimal results when I workout. Didn’t go as well as expected. The exam went great, heart sounds strong so that’s a plus. Device check however wasn’t as positive. I am pacing between 92-96%. What that means is the pacemaker is doing most of the work and my heart is only beating 4-8% of the time on its own. We had hoped for better results in that department. Also my upper and lower ventricles are both pacing. The upper doesn’t matter, it can pace 100% of the time and it’s ok but if the lower ventricles pace too often it can cause heart damage. They tried to adjust it but it kept going back to original pacing. Because of this, they did not feel that it was wise to adjust pacemaker into full sports mode. They did do some slight adjustments but mostly those are to see if they can slow down the high pacing rate. I am allowed to work out but they suggested I do 4-5 days instead of 6 as far as weightlifting goes. I can still workout 6 days but they want me to walk or do some type of easy cardio instead. I also need to have echos done about every 3 months or so, especially if they see something on my heart monitor. I’m disappointed but I still feel so much better than I felt when I had the broken leads.( wires) I am able to get my heart rate higher than before so that’s a plus and my heart itself is strong so that is definitely a win. It’s just the electrical part that isn’t great but perhaps as time goes by it will improve. The Drs at UCSD are so incredible I’m so impressed with their knowledge and care. It is so worth traveling to San Diego to be under their care! 💜
