Loop recorder in one morenweek

Well...I got my pacemaker on March 24, 2017. It was a big mistake. I won't go into details here again. (See previous posts) so next week it comes out and for peace of mind I am having a loop recorder put  in. 

I am a little nervous about my upcoming surgery but some surgery was inevitable due to my previous doctors negligence. 

My question is about the loop recorder. Will I feel it under my skin like I do my pm? My pm frequently pinches me on the inside.  Will I be able to sleep on my side or stomach fairly quickly?

thanks!

It's Small

Loop recorders are much smaller and placed in a different spot. I had mine for almost 6 months and didn't feel it unless I was looking for it. I slept on my stomach right away without any issues.

There is a picture of my loop recorder in my profile.
