A first photo, to show his fans the pacemaker device he had to put in, was posted by actor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Three days earlier, he revealed that he had undergone a third open-heart surgery – in which he was also fitted with a pacemaker.

The famous actor and former governor of California, speaking on the “Arnold’s Pump Club” podcast, said with humor: “Last Monday I had pacemaker surgery and became a bit more of a machine,” referring to his Terminator roles.

In the photo, we see him with his shirt open, showing us the device, with a sticker that reads, “danger, high voltage“, joking.

In his caption, he expressed his heartfelt gratitude to his fans for the “kind messages” they sent him after he revealed he had to have a pacemaker fitted.

Thanks!“, wrote the actor.

I have received so many kind messages from all over the world. Many people have asked if my pacemaker will cause problems with season 2 of FUBAR. No. I will be ready to shoot in April and you can only see it if you really want to“, he said in a cheerful tone.

According to the DailyMail, the Hollywood star has opened up about his heart problem – he said he was born with a bicuspid aortic valve – against his “Austrian upbringing”.

In fact, he said that he has received many messages from people who were born with the same health condition, who “gained courage and hope to face their own respective problems.

I want you to know that I am doing great! I had my surgery on Monday and by Friday I was already at a big environmental event with my friend and colleague Jane Fonda… By the way, when we talk about exercise being the only magic pill that slows down aging, look Jane. She is ten years older than me, this year she turns 87!“, he added with humor.
