It was no fun but I survived. I'm going to stay here overnight for observation, go home tomorrow.
Hang in there. its different for everyone. My 88 year old father just got his second one just before the lock down last year. says he feels it a little on occasion. First one lasted around 11 years.
He is still with us and doing well, and hopefully you should be back to a decent activity level and quality of life soon.
You will likely receive a remote home monitor for the new pacemaker soon.
Best wishes and prayers that all goes well and the new pacemaker keeps every thing in check its supposed to do.
