I do not understand after having a pocket cut into my muscle and all the prying to produce a
pocket why the first dr barely managed to get the
pacemaker under the skin and missed the
pocket he created for it entirely. Other than re-placement, can anything be done to help with this issue? The scar keeps getting wider as the pressure from the pacemaker continues to push up through the skin. It appears to be a matter of days and it will finally tear through. This is NOT going to stay put.
