I Want Information On Pacemakers
I read in a place that people with pacemakers can t feel their heart beating stronger when they re in love. Can any one confirm/expand on that ? Is there a place to learn more? I though that it was really sad.

I don't presume to know a lot about pace makers but that sounds like a big load of you know what. I don't believe that.

A pacemaker slows the heart rate if it gets above a certain rate. I don't see why someone with a pacemaker wouldn't feel their heart beat stronger, but if their heart continues to race or their heart rate gets too high then that's where the pacemaker would correct the heart and slow it down.
