Two months from surgery!

Pacemaker size
This is my pacemaker next to a dollar bill.

This is the pacemaker I have inside my chest.  It is about  as thick as a dime and made of titanium. 
A dollar bill is exactly 6 inches in width.  You can always use it for a ruler if needed.  





Three days after surgery.
Day 3 with outer bandage still on and getting redder around the bandage. I find out later I do not like latex bandages . You can see the irritation. 





Day 6 bandage comes off but the 8 little strips stay on until they fall off.  I still do not know what it looks like. Although I think the location will not interfere with most of my clothes.


 Day 20  The strips were starting to come off so I decided to peel them off and here is my scar!  You can still see the redness from having those strips on for 3 weeks. It really looks pretty good.  I can live with this scar.  



Two months since Pacemaker


Day 60  My scar is perfectly placed.
