Update: heart pauses at 22

Well I quit cannabis since my dr told me it would mean I don’t have to get a pacemaker. It’s been a month since and I got a new heart monitor 3 days ago, received a call this morning and apparently I had a 3.67, 6.0 and 4.5 pause yesterday. They want me to get a pacemaker, I’m so mad, up until a few months ago I had basically no health issues, I’ve still never passed out. And the past month has been the easiest heart wise, I only have palpitations on days I’m stressed.

What’s it like having a pacemaker? My dr hates leafless ones but he’s also an old timer so he might be biased

Had a 2 week heart monitor and got an urgent call today from them.

I’m so damn scared I’m 22 and the last few months have been terrifying, most days I feel fine I have a natural heart rate of between 46-53bpm but knowing it was that slow is scary.

I know exactly which day it happened too, I was in the car with my buddy and my girlfriend, I made jokes that I must be dying but hearing that and knowing I still refused to go to a hospital makes me nervous and terrified, I don’t know what to do, I don’t find out the reason until a week from now but, I’m just so scared

I don’t wanna die in a hospital or anytime before I get to be happy for once
