I had my implant on Sept. of 2009. The last four month has
been just complete hell. The battery pack implant has dropped
about 2 inches or so from the original placement and is not
barely under by skin. Maybe 1/8th of an inch now. The pain is
as if I just got out of surgery. Or like someone stabbed or
shot me. Just really bad. I just moved from the Chicago,IL
area to the Mesa,Az area and getting anything done about it is
impossible. I called Boston Scientific's main number who got
me in touch with a local rep. But if the rep never answers the
phone, let alone returns my messages, what good are they?!?!?
I am going to have to go to the emergency room tonight because
something just isn't right and even the morphine and dilaudid
are doing barely anything. Who knows what they might say..?
Probably to call my rep from Boston Scientific.... Been there
done that...
