New to this life. Had pacemaker installed 6 days ago. Scared. I reached for a bottle of water and forgot not to reach. Should I be concerned?

Thank you for this forum as I have a lot of anxiety.

We've all done it. If you did any damage, you'd know it.

I worried abiut pulling a lead out but then started thinking if these leads are fishooked in my heart or whatever they used if I pulled one out the pain would likely be immense..... 

but I get the fear and apprehension... it's normal. Almost 60 days in and I'm forgetting I have a pacemaker in
