Did any Dr. discuss just replacing the tubing with you? Glad you are liking your AMS! Any reason why you switched from Titan to AMS?


No, no discussion was had about just repairing the tubing. I went with the AMS as both surgeons recommended it, and both recommended the LGX for me. So far very pleased with this ipp.

My first titan failed after 3 years. Tubing failure.
I have another one installed one year ago.
Everything was replaced except for the reservoir.
I spoke with various world class surgeons that told me the even though tubing issue is well known by Coloplast, they are not improving that.
It's definitely a business strategy, in fact in many countries like mine, the warranty went from lifetime to 10 years and now here and in various eu countries even 5 years.
