WARNING-Don't open if squeamish. Pacemaker fitted.

I too had a pacemaker fitted end of May... just browsing & wondered how you are getting on @Pilgrim22. I've been back at work 3 wks now; working up to full time again & have a check with hospital next week. All generally OK but shoulder still feels very tight.

Hi @Tez_Ann_J hoope you're feeling the benefit of the pace maker. My husband had to have one 9 years ago when he had an operation on an aortic aneryism and had his aortic root replaced alongwith an aortic valve. He's been working full time ever since and had to have a new pace maker fitted last year because he wore rhe other one out!! He did have some trouble with stiff shoulder but his pacemaker slipped and he's found it to be a lot more comfortable so they are leaving it where it is!

@Daphne917 ... Interesting - good to hear your hubby doing OK with a second pacemaker ... Out of interest, how long after op did it slip?
