Can I have a BBL if I have an ICD implant or pacemaker?

Cute183271
I have an icd implant (defibrillator) I have an heart condition by the name of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy meaning I have an irregular heartbeats and arrhythmias. My cardiologist said that I could have the bbl surgery but it has to be in a hospital, but it’s been hard finding a surgeon to do it. This is making me more scared and making me question if the surgery would really be safe to do. I know my cardiologist has never steered me wrong but I admit that I’m very nervous.
