How can it feel after you get a pacemaker?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pacemaker: If your heart has been too slow as the indication for the pacemaker, you will feel significantly better than with the slow heart rate. If you get the pacemaker as a precaution to protect against something that might happen, you may not feel anything different. The surgical wound will ache for a while but nothing severe.
