Hello Iker,
I had Mobitz Type 2 and a pacemaker fitted in May this year. One or two leads are fed from the pacemaker through veins into the heart, and (as far as I understand) have small hooks or anchors which attach them inside the heart, which heals around them. The danger at first is that they can be dislodged. I was told that for 6 weeks I should avoid anything strenuous, and not to raise my left arm above shoulder level even when getting dressed. I think you need to explain to your doctor exactly what you do while you are working - they will probably advise you not to do any heavy lifting for at least six weeks.
