Re: [RC] [RC] risks - Nik Isahak Abdullah

Dot
accepted .I am just a small town interventional cardiologist practising in Kuala Lumpur and just fairly concerned if my 'friends ' in the endurance community in USA with pacemakers continue to ride endurance .Dressage ,table tennis or swimming or gym work would be a thousand time safer !

I was referring to the many different reasons some Docs tell folks they can't ride, including hip and knee replacements, back surgery, and other medical conditions. There are no certainties, no matter how many precautions we take. Might as well consider the risks we are willing work around and do what we enjoy while we can. Life's too short at best.
There are many ways for things to go wrong, riding or not. There ain't no guarantees, even with best of health and fitness and preperation.

Dot Wiggins,
It is all right if one can guarantee 100 % one does not fall in endurance.Nothing to do with rythym disturbance during ride or pacemaker malfunction .
