Pump replacement

Postby iwantanewone » Thu Jan 18, 2024 7:33 pm

Hi guys…. Heading to a revision for pump replacement only…. Ams 700 CX
Currently have a sticky pump as the term goes… surgery was 05/2021….so I’m not happy!

Has anyone had a pump only revision surgery. I’m wondering what recovery will be like.
Trying to plan around work, family visits and not wanting to do this anyway.

All replies are appreciated! Thank you!

I have never had just a pump replacement but I would think it should be fairly easy recovery but everyone is different . Are you getting the new released AMS pump?

Does sticky pump mean it is an effort to pump or you cant pump at all?? Do you hear the pop'?
Mine is a hit and miss, but i still manage to hear the 'pop'after repeated attempts

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

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