Q: Heart Defibulator
asked by: capone55 on May 5th, 2008

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.
