Anyone Else Here Have An ICD/Pacemaker?

I suffered a sudden cardiac arrest in October 2015. I was clinically dead for over 5 minutes. I was revived with the use of an AED (automated external defibrillator). The total survival rate from sudden cardiac arrest which kills 3 million people every year worldwide is only 6%. I was diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and had ICD implanted. I have been advised by my cardiologist not to engage any strenuous exercises due to my enlarged heart. I've been obese since my late 20's (I'm 50 now) and decided to have WLS after years of failed diets and exercise. I had RNY surgery on April 11th and I was wondering if anyone else had or going to have surgery with an ICD/Pacemaker implant?
