I Have A Defibrillator In My Chest And A Wire

I have a defibrillator in my chest and a wire goes into my heart-it shocks me when my heart beats faster than 230 beats per minute for more than twenty beats-been shocked fourteen times-is it necessary to have this replaced when the battery wears out-it was put in in 2011 and I have three years left on this battery.
