My husband has a pacemaker, and he has no problems being around the microwave. His doctor said it was fine. The only thing he has to worry about is the x-ray machine at airports. They also said his pacemaker might set off the alarms in stores too, but so far so good.

If you have a pacemaker do you still have to avoid microwave ovens?
