Subpectoral device placement
Posted by Angelie on 2010-02-03 13:19
 
Seriously, just trying to find out all I can about subpectoral placement. I've read all of the "keyword" searches, but am just wanting to know more.

Recovery time? How much longer and detailed the surgery is? Are battery replacements any more complicated? Problems? Issues? Regrets? People who have been through "standard" placement- how much more painful is it? What to expect? Restrictions?

I'm trying to plan an overseas trip (March 5th-14th), but the doctors also are demanding that my pacer be moved under my muscle due to complications that I've been having.....

UGH.......Help?
