Can Pacemaker /see it move my shirt

I have had a pacemaker for 1 month. Last week I started feel thumping on my right side near my waist, I could also see my shirt moving. Went to the cardiologist and the pacemaker rep did some adjustment, went away. Come back a few hours later, almost unbearable. Exhausting. Did not stop, happened every couple of second. back to the drs office early next day. Adjusted again, came home started up again. This was friday afternoon, called dr, got answering service, put me through immediately. He said to come in Monday will adjust again. The weekend has been horrible, Goes away when I walk but the minute I sit down it is back. Any suggestions...

I have had my pacer since 2005. At first it ruled my life. It took some time to calm down and make the mental adjustment. I had trouble sleeping and I worried a lot about pulling wires. Now I just live my life as I wish.
