It's been 6-weeks since my ICD implant. I asked for a follow-up appointment this week to discuss my wildly fluctuating HR 60-150

( I wear a Garmin 225 continuous HR monitoring via the wrist )

I get headaches on top of my head, tingling around the implant site and nausea. I'm also on 10mg of bystolic.

It's my understanding he set the voltage higher initially till the leads are firmly attached. The pacemaker portion is set at 60bpm.

Has anyone experienced these symptoms?
