Great, good to know that it all went well. Just rest up now and don't do too much with your left arm for the next 6 weeks, after that you're up and running!

Hi well done, just be careful laying on your left side for a while, it all gets better with time

Good luck

I was thinking about you today and hoped you'd posted to say all had gone smoothly. I wish you well with your recovery from the op and your new life as a battery operated human 😃

Hi. Thank you for thinking about me & for your advice on the ICD 👍 yes as I posted procedure went well a bit uncomfortable but you can put up with that , it was painless lasted just less than an hour & then back on ward & in way home about 5 on Tuesday, shoulder was very sore yesterday & while not as bad is today but getting easier thanks again 🙏
