I’m having my permanent implantation this Tuesday and I wanted to ask y’all if any of you were able to choose a battery placement that was different than what doctors default to. I know they usually do it on the upper part of the butt/hip but I would rather have the battery placed on my chest, kind of like where pacemaker batteries are put.

My job involves physical labor and animals, and I feel like my upper chest area would be the least likely to get hit by tools or animals. If you wanted a specific placement for the battery, did your doctor let you do that? Or did they insist on doing the usual spot?
