MAX George is returning to hospital amid fears about his pacemaker following a gruelling heart operation. The Wanted singer told fans he's been feeling a "flicking" in his chest since going under the knife for emergency surgery. It comes just days after the 36-year-old was sent home from hospital having had a 2:1 block in his heart.
Max said in a new video: "I'm in the hospital for another check up because I've been getting this 'flicking' feeling in the left-hand side of my chest.". Reaching out for advice from those who also have a pacemaker, Max said: "The doctors aren't too sure. Hopefully it's maybe a nerve touching it and it'll go away in time or maybe they'll have to move the wires slightly.
"All I'm doing is research at the moment because this came totally out of the blue and I know nothing about pacemakers. "Any information I can get would be very appreciated.". Max - who went sober four years ago amid previous liver problems - saw his heart rate dramatically drop earlier this month.
The condition is yet to be diagnosed - but with no improvement after a week he was given an emergency operation to have a pacemaker fitted. Things looked on the up when he was discharged for Christmas Day and enjoyed a few steps outside on a walk with girlfriend Maisie Smith.
