bumping unit with arm

I have pm/df since August 2013. I have a problem with bumping the side of implant every time I reach up or out quickly.
The pain is quick but bothersome. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I was told the unit would have to be moved to fix problem. Not sure I want to go through another surgery. Thanks for your help.

When I'm at the gym

During certain upper body exercises I squeeze the device. It can be very uncomfortable at times....ok, at times it hurts but I am not having it moved due to exercise movements. I never even mentioned it to the Doctors. Some days it's fine and some days it's not.

On the days when it hurts, I modify the exercise.

Don't know if any of that helped you.

I've seen many posts about people being concerned about exercise after having a device so thought I would let you know that yesterday I raced my first marathon since having my pacemaker fitted in fall 2004.
