I suffered a mild heart attack in Dec. 2004 with a stent placed in my right coronary arterie. I have done well until recently being placed into the cardiac unit of a large hospital due to slow heart beats (in the low forties), and erractic heart beating. Causing weakness, lethary,etc. Have had major test run such as echo=cardio, induced stress test, heart monitoring, etc. I was diagnosed with Bigeminy and slow heart rate that was said to not be connected in cause. Is there nothing that can be done? I was told that a pace-maker would not help in my case.
Q: I have bigeminy and slow heart beats. What can I do?
