Zoll Life Vest before ICD?

Posted by scoleo70058 @scoleo70058, Jul 26 2:14am

Good morning. Does anyone have experience transitioning from a Zoll Life Vest to an ICD/Pacemaker.
I have been wearing the life vest for about 2 weeks now and have just under 2 more before my implant.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Pacemaker & ICDs Support Group.

In reply to @scoleo70058 "@sladeottney Sorry for the multiple replies, but how long did you have driving restrictions?" + (show)

@scoleo70058 I did not have any driving restrictions after 24 hours. It was winter, my jacket was padding between the device and the seat belt. Your doctor will outline that in your discharge paperwork; we are all different in our Pacemaker/ICD recoveries.
