Faulty Pacemaker Wire

Faulty Pacemaker Wire

My mother-in-law recently had mitral valve replacement to supposedly help with her congestive heart failure. She had a pacemaker put in several months earlier. Her valve surgery was in November, and she has now been diagnosed with CHF again. Today the docs told her there was a faulty wire in her pacemaker. Is that why she is experiencing CHF, and will fixing the wire help to alleviate it?

It very well could be the problem.  I've sent you a private email, it contains an email address of someone who had this situation, and she's a health professional as well.  Best wishes.
