lifting/armpit

I feel like my PM is too close to my arm pit. I workout usualy 5x a week. I am 23 years old and should be okay with lifting. Sometimes it just hurts too much. I lifted this morning and I feel like I pulled a muscle in my chest. My doctor told me it was okay to lift as long as its not "too much". Does anyone have the same problem? Also, I am large breasted and when I take off my bra, my left breast hurts at the top. I have done my medtronic phone scans and my doctor says it looks fine.

Hi, I am 25 and had exactly the same problem. They had to reposition it. You may that to be done for you. The one thing that I have noticed my breast are big and go up and down in size and that seems to make the pacer move more.
I did get mine repositioned and then got a infection b/c of it but that is always a side effect of surgery. It would be worth it for you to sit down and tell your Dr. how it hurts..
Look forward to talking to you more.

Thanks

Thanks Tammy, I have my next appointment in march and will discuss it with my doctor. I did lose weight over the summer and gain it back so that could be a possibility. I really appreciate your comment.
