Arm and shoulder pain

I had my pacemaker implant June 3. I am experiencing pain in my left arm/ shoulder particularly when I reach for something. Has anyone else experienced this. I'm wondering if I have frozen shoulder syndrome. Thanks for all of your support, this is a wonderful site

I also have shoulder pain in my left shoulder. I think it happened because I was told so many times not to lift up my left arm because the leads needed time to heal. I have been doing shoulder stretching and other shoulder movement just so it doesn't get totally frozen. But, I agree with ANGRY SPARROW. Frozen shoulder is serious and it really needs to be address by someone who knows how to repair the damage.
Good luck.

Please call.
