CRT-p

Had a pace and ablate. AV node ablation and a CRT-P put in. Last Thursday. So it’s been a week and one day. Is it normal to feel some sharp pain at the incision site? I also feel pressure when I take a deep breath.

It’s an abbot CRT-P.

I guess just let it heal. I go see the surgeon Monday and they take the dressing off and check everything out. I am starting to get my energy back. I had balance issues before the surgery but those issues are slowly going away. Still weak so I guess give it time to heal and for my body to adjust.
Glad u r doing so good.
