I just passed my first 8 weeks since my PM implant. I am on Pradaxa and Metropolol. I do not take these at the same time every day, but I do manage to get them taken twice a day. 

I have resumed normal activities, including my favorite exercise in a golf game (9 holes last week-plan on 18 Monday).

So today a new pain started bothering me and thought I would get some input from the group. I have a checkup Dec 4, and I will discuss it then too. But this pain is about a 6 (I have a high pain tolerance) and is like a localized, squeezing cramp in the left side of my chest. That’s it. During the episodes, every minute or two, I would get a pain contraction that would last a few seconds, then be gone. This lasted for a half hour or so, while we were out at dinner. No other symptoms like flushing or pain in my back or arms or jaw. 

I know the PM doesn’t monitor pain, per se, but will it pick up any heart attacks or anomalies like this? 

Thanks for your input.
