Hi, ive had my implant for 18 months now, no problems at all but of late i have been getting some slight discomfort in my left side.

Could this be the reservoir and if so it it anything to be concerned about?

Hi, Bionic Brother I dont think you are having resevoir problems. You may just need a bowel movement. I get constipated from time to time myself and my abdomen hurts sometimes on the left side sometimes in the middle and sometimes on the right side. I was thinking the same thing, I thought the reservoir may be trying to push out and was causing pain or discomfort, but I took some stool softeners and or laxatives and come to find out, that was the problem. Hope this helps you. Take Care.

Does anyone know if we have a choice as to where the reservoir is placed?
