Can Stress Cause Conditions To Warrant A Pacemaker In A Healthy Person?
I just came from my primary physician who informed me I need a pacemaker. He put me on stat with a cardiologist and I m now awaiting a phone call from him. I ve always been very healthy until the last year and a half due to an accident. Can stress cause conditions to warrant a pacemaker?
