Yes, generally speaking, one could have an angiogram 3 months after a pacemaker implant. The pacer wires are in the right sided chambers. An angiogram is on the left side, and these catheters can enter the left ventricle, so pacemaker wires on the right side would not be an issue.

Yes. I am curious to know why an 18 year-old would need a pacemaker and then an angiogram. Not clear what kind of angiogram has been recommended. Please discuss this fully and ask all the questions that occur to you.
