Hey gang

Hi everybody,
I just had an ICD implanted for the first time last week. I heard about this site and thought it would be nice to be in touch with folks with similar experiences. So far my chest is a little achey from getting a piece of technology lodged in it but apart from that I'm feeling good and looking forward to worrying a little less about my rebellious heart giving me trouble at inoportune times. I just wanted to say hi to everybody. So.."Hi!"

Cheers-
Cory

Hi Cory,
Welcome to this site. You will like it here. It's helped me tremendously. It's nice to know how many people out there also have a piece of technology implanted in their chests.

Again, welcome.

Hi Cory its been 6 weeks for me and I feel great still a little pensive but assured that all will be well. Discomfort goes away in a a few days and soon you will forget you even have a PM and wonder if it really happened. Be blessed you have a second chance at life enjoy.

My eight year old son had a pacemaker since he was 6 months old. He does very well, plays soccer, baseball, and rides his bike. I am so glad he is not ashamed of his pacemaker. He will proudly show his "battery" to anyone.
