I got my pacemaker Oct 9th but became very sick. Was in the hospital a week and then rehab 2 weeks. Finally yesterday I got my device check. I have been having extreme burping, hiccuping, nausea, vomiting and an annoying pain. They tell me the lead is too close to a nerve - frenetic? -and I have to have surgery to repair it. I will probably have to wait till the middle of January. I am not too happy.
