Shoulder Pain

I am 5 weeks post implant and had bad shoulder pain, like a stabbing pain. That lasted about 3 weeks and started getting better last week. I too thought there might be a problem but after talking with my cardiologist he said that the position of the pacemaker sits over a nerve and that causes the pain that I had. As for your pain it may get better on its own after your body adjusts to the trauma of surgery. I am much better this week and I think eventually yours will be too. Anyway good luck.
