The disadvantages is When sudden changes in heartbeat do take place in persons with normal hearts, they often experience symptoms as an aching in the heart area or a feeling of weakness.
Yes the pace maker can be replaced but also the permanent infixation of an artificial pacemaker can restore a reliable heartbeat.
The recovery time is normally shorter than that for the open procedure.
With the cost it depends but you should have an insurance to go with it.
