I developed pericarditis after my implant. I had the implant on Wednesday spent 3 days in high care and still have tightness in my chest. Saw my cardiologist today, he tweeked my pm and took a scan of my heart. All seems good, he said to rest more. It's A complication on a pacemaker implant but very rare.
Will let you know how it feels in a few days.

My ICD/pacer is not a burden. I still play tennis and golf.

I did after my pm install. I was put on steroids and cleared up quickly. Very painful for a few days.
