I’ve had a pacemaker/defibrillator since August 2021….feel great and have less anxiety with it than without it as I have ventricular tachycardia. There are times especially when laying down I feel like I can feel the pacemaker working… has anyone else felt this?

I've been told that it is actually your heart kicking in. You are not supposed to feel it. But then the people saying that don't have a pacemaker!
