Dull ache around heart area

Ive had a pacemaker since the age of 14, im now 26 and had it changed two / three times. Im half way through this "cycle" but recently ive been getting a dull ache around by my heart, its quite hard to explain but it is quite a bad pain that last usually for about 10/15 mins, it seems to be getting more regular. I first thought it was happening due to sleeping awkwardly but now im thinking it isnt. Had it checked a few weeks back and mentioned it and they said it seemed normal but as i say is getting more regular usually 2x a day. Has anyone else experienced this? Should i get seen? Thanks

Dull ache

Possible angina symptom......at least it was for me at the beginning of heart problems long ago.  Believe I would get Cardiologist Appt. soon.  My wife has had similar symptoms several times and each has been determined esophagus issue after ruling out heart related.

I would go past the pacer techs and nurses and get to the doctor. You also might want to see your GP, it could be something not cardiac. 

You know you're wired when...

You can hear your heartbeat in your cell phone.
