 I have a 2 Lead Pacemaker and I have been feeling my heartbeat in my stomach and left rib cage and pounding in my chest for several weeks now since waking up laying on my left side. My position sitting down or laying down makes a difference also. It is very uncomfortable and distracting and I am having more palpitations now. Also my heart rate has increased just walking room to room. I have seen my EP and have another appointment this month. good luck to you and I hope you get this sorted out. 

You know you're wired when...

You can feel your fingers and toes again.
