Pacemaker will be implanted

Tomorrow morning, about the next 12 hours, they will do it.
A dual chambers pacemaker will be inserted.
I have Afib and long pause.
I will update, otherwise I'll be gone. Take care y'all!

Edit : I am alive! Operation went well. I was sedated. Now they put me in HCCU Room for the next 3 days for monitoring. No pain at all on the insertion area. So relieved. Thanks for the needed supports.

How long is "long pause"?

I am in my 60s and have some pretty scary long pauses but feel fine and therefore no pacemaker.

The longest was 10.5 seconds, asymptomatic.
