A wandering pacemaker just means that the impetus for a beat of your heart is initiated at various sites. It could start in the AV node, which is normal, then move to another part of the heart for another beat to be initiated. This type of activity can result in arrhythmias or irregular heart rhythms. It can progress to be a serious condition and certainly bears watching by your cardiologist.
