What is the effect of a pacemaker on diabetes?

Patient's question:

Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has been affected. Now I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. What is the effect of a pacemaker on diabetes?

Doctor's answer:

First, your mother often feels fatigued, weak, dizzy, and uncomfortable, which is a manifestation of a slow heart rate. Her heart rate per minute may be lower than 50, otherwise, the doctor would never have implanted a pacemaker for her. Compared to diabetes, installing a pacemaker is more critical because it concerns life and death, whereas diabetes can be controlled by taking medication on time. In terms of its side effects, the benefits outweigh the risks.
