circulation

Has anyone ever experienced a change of skin color in their arm from the pacemaker. I have noticed quite often my left arm and hand are visibly darker in color than my right arm.

I just posted a message about my left arm swelling, the veins bulging, and I also have a bluish color to my arm. I personally feel like I have another blockage. I see my EP Dr. in a few weeks, but I doubt he will address this. He's rarely interested in anything but how the device itself is functioning. Maybe you could ask your Dr. and let us know what he/she says! Bambi

In fact after the final "tweaks" of my pacemaker programming at the one year check up it is working so well that I forget I have it.
