post op after repositioning of pm

Hi all my lovely pacemaker friends!

I had the surgery to reposition my pacemaker 5 days ago cause the old position was rubbing against my bone causing extreme pain and discomfort. The surgery went OK only thing due to lack of muscle by my collar bone the surgeon had to place it right in my left breast, so the post op pain and discomfort is to terrible, but praying its worth it in the long run! All I can say is don't be quiet and scared about going to your cardio about strange pain cause it could be something simple like mine or something more serious!

Mine is in the breast also. It is well worth it once you heal. I can barely even feel the edges of mine now and it never gets in my way, even lifting weights and hiking with a heavy pack. Feel better soon!
