Ask the doctors. I have atrial fibrillation and have read about a procedure to treat it using radio frequency energy to get rid of the cause of the irregular beats. I have a pacemaker, given to me after several unsuccessful cardioversions. If I underwent the new procedure, would I keep the pacemaker?
