Is this group still active? Have had a pacemaker for 2 years. Initially no problems, but now I have terrible pain in my left arm below my shoulder and above the elbow. I have been to 3 orthopedists and my electrophysiologist. They all recommend PT, which I am receiving, but I do not think I should have such debilitating pain. I can't get anyone at Yale New Haven Hospital to help me. They ALL say it's not the pacemaker, and I think it is!! Whose body is this??? I had a pikk line for chemo in this arm (left) 15 years ago, but now I get debilitating jolts of pain that take my breath away. I'm at a loss as to what to do next. Any thoughts??? Thank you. Pat
