@jc76 Thank you for your response, my weight has been fluctuating up and down for a while now. My device is situated on the left just under my collar bone, I'm not sure but, I think the device is perturbing more than when it was first fitted.

I was going to post about body encapsulation of the devices over time. But I see you have had one for 7 years so that encapsulation is over. The encapsulation would cause it to protrude upward more but also helps irritation of body dealing with a foreign object in body.
Do you have a PACE Clinic and or see EP? Could be some shifting of device and maybe new irritation. Don't know not medical person just trying to relate my experience with 3 of these devices over 20 years.
