Received Electric Shock from an Outlet

While waiting for my doctor to respond I thought I'd ask you experts... So I was plugging in my laptop charger into the wall outlet and I got an electric shock that reached my elbow. Is there any way that could cause my pm to malfunction?

They are very well shielded so it's unlikely anything happened. Do you feel ok? Is your pulse normal?

As Tracey says your pacemaker is probably fine.  Now, the question is, how is your electrical outlet or did you accidently touch it?   If you think you did not accidently touch it, you may want to have an electrician check your outlet/outlets esp if you could have old wiring in your home.

To tell you the truth I never even give it a second thought. While growing up it never stopped me from doing anything and to this day my girlfriend or my kids need to remind me that I have one!
