Smile Use of Polar or other Heart Monitor

I have an implanted pacemaker. My question is, has anyone with a pacemaker used a Polar or other brand exercise heart monitor, with a chest strap?
Will they cause a pacemaker problem? Will they work properly and give the correct readings?
Any input app. Thanks, Bob [robessa1@yahoo.com]

go to www.chponline.com and ask them. They are an authorized reseller of polar products and seemed pretty knowledgable when I called them a few years back.

good luck!

I'm a chiropractor and would strongly recommend that you consult your physician on that matter. He/she can best advise.
