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

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.
