FEELS SHOCKING AT TIMES

Hi, I've only had my PM since January, but quite often I feel like I feel a little shock. It even makes me jump on occasion. Is this normal?? It's also pretty tender still, and I'm not sure if that's OK either. It's not like I can't stand the pain. I'd call it more "uncomfortable". Thank you for any input you can give me.

You should definitely contact your Dr. I wouldn't think this would be normal on a regular basis. Likewise with it being tender the incision should be fully healed and while it may sometimes be uncomfortable it shouldn't be tender 4 months out...but everyone is different.

Better with time

Had my pacer implanted in Dec and with certain movements it still hurts, but better than before, definitely improvement. Is there weekly improvement at this point? I have a partial frozen shoulder and receiving therapy, but getting better daily. I used to get those little shocks in the beginning but they are gone now...good luck!

Your ICD has a better memory than you.
