My husband of 73 years has had his second
defibulator for his heart
put in, in Oct. 2007. He did fine with his
first defibulator but has been
having pains in his left shoulder, ever
since he had this second defibulator
put in, in Oct. O8. Does anyone out there
know what could cause this.
We cannot come up with any solutions and
he is in awful pain. If anyone
knows anything , please give me some
info.

This needs to be addressed by your
cardiologist. This is not normal for a
defibrillator to cause pain. It may need
to be adjusted. Please take your husband
to his cardiologist to have this assessed.
