On Pacemaker, Has Severe Weakness, Confusion, Low BP, Heavy Cough. Pacemaker Syndrome?
Hello, Pacemaker syndrome mainly affects the heart due to non physiological activity of the heart. There is likelihood of this condition creating problems. But a cardiac evolution by ECG and ECHO is needed. A cardiologist is needed to arrive at that diagnosis.
