Hi out there. Just came home from my 3rd PM surgery since 12-28-09. I've posted on here since then regarding pain that I was experiencing. After having pain since the original surgery, second to reattach leads, and having consulted with my cardiologist we decided it best to go back in to see what was up. The only thing he could think of before this was that the stitches where attatched to the muscles and/or nerve tissue were pulling and thus causing the pain. He took out the PM repositioned the leads (not into the heart though) and then put everything back together again. The procedure took two hours --longer than the two previous implants. I am hoping that this will solve my pain problems.

Wish me luck. Thanks for all the support that has been given to me through this site. Thankfully, I have had good experiences with the medical profession where I live.
