Burning in shoulder

Happy New Year to you all , I have just became a member on this site and would like to ask any of you members have you suffered any of the following problems like myself since having a pace maker fitted?

I had my pacemaker fitted in September 2011 and had to go back within two weeks later to have it re fitted due to the leads coming out , the first Operation went well bit sore but that was expected but was healing well , but I had another funny turn and was taken to Hospital where I was told I had to have a second operation due to the leads coming out , after my second operation I have been suffering with pains in my left arm almost like being stung by bees sensation , I have also been suffering with shooting pains going down my left arm to my elbow and also very fast palputations also suffering from numbness in my left top shoulder , I did not have any of these symptoms until I had my second Operation as when I was on the operating theatre when I was being re opened up my left arm kept flicking out towards the sugeon who kept saying that was should not be happening this happened at least ten times whilst having my Operation and I was in such terrible pain even though I had a local anaesthetic I have been suffering since the Operation In early October 2011 with all these symptoms and I thought by now it would of all stopped hence why I have not been back to the Clinic as yet as I thought I'd allow a few months for the healing process , But I am feeling very worried now that the Surgeon has damaged my nerves in my arm and this has caused me another problem .. has anyone gone through the same thing as myself?
