Hello everyone! I just had my PM placed on 11/11. (I was alamb before, but for some reason, I can't open up my account. So,... now I am alamb2.) I got a St. Jude dual chamber unit. It was placed under the muscle (longer recovery) and secured with about 9 staples so the only restriction I got was no sudden or jerky, jostiling movments and to let the pain be my guide. I was given six to eight weeks for full recovery.

I wanted to thank everyone who have given me feed back. If it were not for you, I would still be on the fence as to whether I should get it done or wait till I "really" need it. It is done now. While I am still on pain meds that make me drowsy , I have to report I already feel much better. To put my feeling into words,... it is like putting on a pair of corrective eyeglasses and now, I can see with clarity. I can't wait till I am all healed up and off of the meds.

What a difference!

Amie
