  8. Zimetbaum P. Ask the doctor. I had a pacemaker implanted a few months ago. I am planning to join a gym to get back some strength in my arms and upper body, but I am afraid of damaging the wires with some of the presses and pull down movements I would have to do to work out on the gym's machines.

  16. Zimetbaum P. Ask the doctor. I recently had a pacemaker implanted. While the process was going on, I felt a pulsation that I reported to the doctor. I still feel it seven months later. Other symptoms include low blood pressure, an increase in weight, and digestive changes. My primary care doctor thinks that my vagus nerve could have been damaged when the pacemaker was implanted.
