Question

I'm really concerned about my recent master checkup results. The doctor mentioned I have an abnormal heart rhythm where my heart stops for 1.8 seconds. He said it's a birth defect and suggested I get a pacemaker. I've been feeling dizzy lately, and I'm wondering if that's related to my heart issue. Do you think it's a good idea to go ahead with the pacemaker? Are there any other treatments or alternatives you would recommend?
