What Is The Cause Of An Electrical Shock Going From Back To Shoulder And Then To The Arm After Having A Pacemaker Surgery?
Just checking on what to do about the electrical shock I have going from my middle of the back, to shoulder and down to the middle of right arm. This occurs every 6 minutes and lasts up to 1/2 a minute each. Some are worse than others. This started a month after a pacemaker was put in. Could this be muscle tension due to the surgery. Some one said to check Rotator Cuf in right shoulder

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say that your symptom is nonspecific in origin and this may not be due to the surgery or because of the pacemaker, try to keep the stress level very low and forget about the feeling, this is nothing to worry, have a nice day.
