Re: Does an AMS 700 CX implant soften up over time

Re: Broken again?

I replied to you before! I think you need to become more forceful!! I would speak to your doctor… you don’t mention his name…. 3 in a year??? Not acceptable. If he does enough business with ams they will work with him to get everything covered as well as the hospital can contribute as well. It would...

John HC…. It sounds like you have had more than your share of problems with AMS…. I don’t know if you’re aware that these have a “parts warranty ”. Yes, you still are supposed to pay for doctors and hospital. BUT, you can call Boston Scientific and speak to the patient liaison and tell them your sit...

Re: Pump replacement

Do most find a revision surgery recovery is easier than the initial surgery?

I had a fairly difficult recovery from the initial implant surgery!

Re: Update--problems with pump

How do you know your pump is on the list? I too am having pump issues and will have a revision with a new pump after only 1 1/2 years….damn it! But, I looked on the fda recall list and I too found my number on the list. However when I called the ams liaison she explained that many people have the sa...
