Default Pacemaker

Last weekend I went into cardiac arrest with 3rd degree heart block ended up at West Marion Hospital with a heart rate of 22. Had emergency surgery for placement of a pacemaker.
Just wondering what to expect as far as life with the pacemaker and will life ever be normal again? Almost afraid to go to sleep wondering whether l’ll wake up or not.
Can someone with a pacemaker share their experience.
Thanks Bob
