RabbitmanI wouldn’t recommend using it, but consult with your physician to be sure.

RabbitmanAs rf9661 said, it'd be best to consult with your physician first, but it should be fine. The amount of electricity used for bioimpedance body fat testing is teeny (2 volts) and it's dispersed throughout your body tissue as opposed to being conducted through your nerves. The only solid contraindications I could find for bioimpedance testing was for people with pacemakers.
