[SEL] ICD Device Question

[JIM KIRKES]

I may have to have an ICD installed, this is an Implantable 
Cardioverter-Defribulator which is a little like a pacemaker. These are 
installed about the same and are in a similar package except that the 
function is different.  What little I have been able to find out says you 
should not be near a magnetic field or a running engine.  That is pretty 
vague, does anybody have one of these that can help me out with better 
information?
