Pain near the left arm and Fingers

Hi,
I have been implanted with pace maker in the year 2002. For the past one month, i am getting pain near the leads of the pacemaker when i jog for long. Recently, i am also experiencing pain in the left arm and fingers. Other than that, i am not having any trouble in doing any of my activities nor experiencing any giddiness.
Can you please let me know if there are any implications with the jogging. I used to gym/swim/jog without any problems earlier.

Sincere thanks
Ajay

It's unlikely it's related to the jogging, and it's quite likely it's not related to the pm either. I'd start with the internist

Hi! Any unexplained symptom(s) that could involve the heart in any way should be medically evaluated. Is your cardiologist aware of what you described in your post? Regardless of the cause, you will feel more secure, comfortable and enjoy jogging more with an answer. Hopeful Heart

As for my pacemaker (almost 7 years old) I like to think of it in the terms of the old Timex commercial - takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
