exercise after surgery

I just got an upgrade to a defibrillator (had a pacemaker for 5 years) last Wednesday. I would like to go for a walk but don't know if it's too early to do a small amount of exercise. Any thoughts on this? It's  been 4 days since my procedure was done.

Yep, I agree!

Your device isn't going anywhere, get out there and walk!  Probably the best thing you can do for yourself right now!

Good luck

Go for it

Get out there in the fresh air, walking best exercise you can do!  Best wishes

I wasn't really self-conscious about it. I didn't even know I had one until around six or seven years old. I just thought I had a rock in my side.
