How can pacemaker help?

Posted By Lisa on June 07, 1998 at 20:54:25:







I recently found out that I will soon get a pacemaker. Along with congestive
heart failure and atrial fibrillation, this news kinda overwhelmed me and
I didn't ask enough questions before I left the office.  I'm getting the
pacemaker because my heart pauses 3 or 4 seconds between beats many times
a day (results for 24 hour holter monitor).  The doctor did say it was a
single lead; but I want to know if the pacemaker will help my atrial
fibrallation? I hope there is enough info for an answer because like I said
I left the office in shock.
