Heart Cause is not relevant

Though doc may attempt to chide, if the unit has moved, the cause is irrelevant as it could just as easily have been an ineffective creation of the pocket for its containment in your body and ineffective securing of the unit in the body.

Relevance is whether it has moved. A moved unit is a moved unit. If it, having moved, results in questionable operation, recharging, or program accessibility, doctor has a duty to inquire. You are the patient, and doctor operates under a duty of professional care so take no guff. Press the issue if you are concerned.

Give accurate information regarding your activities and take along a corroborator, such as spouse or good friend. Doc will perceive the scenario as best possible according to skill level and care, then hopefully you will receive treatment as required.

I may seem cranky, but trepidation when it comes to whether doc gives a %!#$ is beyond the pale. They must treat issues presented not hold judgment whether something is amiss, for they may just as easily be the cause. So, worry not, and go be seen for your need. Head held high. Expecting the best of care because you are the deserving patient!

How's that for a locker room spirit call?
Mark56 OO-AH!!
