can I use a heating blanket for my gassy stomach

I have  a pacemaker that is 8 years old  and wonder if I can use a heating blanket on my stomach to tame the gassy stomach.  I was told when I got it in 2010 that I should not use any thing pluged in.  Thanks

I use all sorts of things that plug in! All of us do. TENS is really the only thing we should avoid. There's no reason you cant use a heating pad. 

You know you're wired when...

You invested in the Energizer battery company.

I just want to share about the quality of life after my pacemaker, and hopefully increase awareness that lifestyles do not have to be drastically modified just because we are pacemaker recipients.
