Neck Pulling from ICD Implant

Neck Pulling from ICD Implant

I had my ICD implanted originally in 10/09 and the pocket revised in 01/10.  I continue to have pulling which starts under the collarbone (where I assume the leads enter a blood vessel) up my neck deep to my mandible under my ear and then up the side of my face to my eye.  My doctors tell me they are not sure why this is happening and are hoping it will pass.  Meanwhile it is driving me crazy.  Has anyone else experienced this and can possibly shed some insight on it for me?  Thanks, Wayne

I will respond just to let you know some one is reading your post.  

You question is very specific so it looks like the best we can hope for is this "bump" to the top of the list will help someone with helpful experience read your post.

It does sound to me like your doctor(s) should do something to relieve the problems... that has got to be your best hope/direction.

Wishing a good night's rest, that will help some.
