I had a pacemaker placed to control a complete heart block in Feb'09. Generalized musce pain, cramps and aches developed in Jul'09. I have no idea who to see regarding this new development of pain. Should I see my Internal Medicine doctor or a GP nearer to home? Should I see a neurologist?
I also tried acetaminaphen and benadryl. Neither of the medication helped. I am at a loss as to where I go from here? If you know something, please respond
