Pacemkr shocking phrenic nerve?

Just joined the site a hour ago. Got home from successful Tricuspid Valve repair surgery yesterday. I've had an AICD since Feb/12. Last night my pacemaker felt like it was shocking my phrenic nerve which I hear can happen. They changed my settings at the hospital. At one point it hit me 10 shocks in a row. Then 1 or 2 intermittently throughout the night. Anybody else have this happen? Is that what it sounds like? What did you have done?
I'm calling my EP tomorrow to have the device evaluated.
Any guidance would be helpful.
Thanks,
