Audio devices that are safe to use with a pacemaker

en passant: 13 years of life with a CRT PPM is REALLY good- may you enjoy many more!
I'm quite grateful as when I was first diagnosed with heart failure I was given only a year or two to live, five at most. Yet here I am! It pays to follow instructions....
 
FWIW -- and this is NOT meant to be advice for other people with pacemakers -- it is merely what my heart surgeon told me about the particular pacemaker that he implanted me. He said that there is basically no device in a normal home that will interfere with its operation. However, the MONITOR that connects to it must be kept away from electrical devices and conductors (like metal). If you have questions about your own devices, the best person to consult would be your cardiologist or heart surgeon.
