After a 1993 OHS to implant mechanical valve, I ended up with AV block. Now I need to replace my 4th pacemaker and my cardiologist suggested a Medtronic Micra AV2 wireless pacemaker. Looking for some feedback if anyone has had a wireless or lead-less pacemaker implanted in their heart. Thanks!

Wow Elaine! I just read your story and you are definitely an inspiration! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing journey with us. God bless you!

Hi Terry, pleasure to meet you! I will be getting surgery in Nov for a replacement valve. Thanks for the good thoughts! God bless!
