Left arm Swelling

I had a CRT pacemaker implanted 3 weeks ago and today I noticed  that my left wrist is swollen and I believe most of my left arm.  Is this something that is common and anything to worry about?

swelling in left arm

Hi Glenda: two weeks after my implant over use caused my arm and wrist to swell. a good nights sleep and limited use solved my problem. i believe if you limit over use your swelling will reso!ve itself.

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.
