I first had my pacemaker inserted in 2015. I moved to Devon in 2021. I then started having my checks at Barnstaple Hospital in 2022 every 6months. The care and attention I have received since being down here has been great. The staff are cheerful and dedicated to their work.
I even have a home monitor, which doesn't work very well, it's intermittent in sending its recording, been replaced once but still not working as it should. However everything seems to be going well.
I recently went for a review. Was told I have 2 and a half months battery left, told I should be hearing from Exeter hospital soon. Then told if I don't hear, my next appointment would be in 3 months back at Barnstaple. On reflection that means I will probably run out of power!! I feel quite apprehensive about the time lap. However I hope that things work out.
Hopefully.
