I had to have a defibrillator installed in Aug, 2019 because of low ef, and sometimes now I can fill a crawling sensation off and on inside around defibrillator area, sometimes when I'm lying down or on computer( I don't think computer interfer like a cell phone) I was told it was nerves settling around inside site. Has anyone had those feeling?

Thank you Wendy, mine feeling was more like a slight crawling sensation that just last a second, I have ask my Dr. and was the one who said that it was nerves settling in area and no irregular heartbeat or arrahthymia. I hope it is not the case.

I feel a slight vibration at times. I called the hospital where I had the ICU/pacemaker put in.
