Hi guys,
as you know I have an AMS LGX since 23 April, so surgery done more then 3 months ago.
The implant works well and I don't feel anymore discomfort.
But few days ago I start to feel some discomfort in the reservoir area.
It's not a pain, only a discomfort and it happens only in certain positions.
I am a bit worried about that, because all pain and discomfort was disappeared and now I have a new discomfort.
I can't explain that. I suppose that the reservoir has change his position during last days and the body feels the difference. What do you think about that?
Please, let me know what do you think about that!
Thanks

Re: Reservoir discomfort/migration after 3 months
It might not have anything to do with your reservoir. But your doc is the expert on what is inside your body and what type of things you should be concerned about. I suggest you give him a phone call and get his opinion. If it is something that could serious you want to catch it early.

I completely agree with Dave.
Make an appointment with your Implant Surgeon ASAP and explain to him exactly what you feel and where you feel it.
Please keep us posted.
Good Luck,
Bob

Re: Reservoir discomfort/migration after 3 months
I've sent an email to my surgeon. He doesn't seem worried about that.
He just thinks that, because I'm quite slim, I feel more the reservoir than normal and in certain position it creates some discomfort.
I don't know, it's strange that this discomfort is appeared after 2 months..

I was able to deflate more with time, which caused my reservoir to expand and it was a bit uncomfortable. Mine dropped a bit, but it is not a problem.
