I'm sorry to hear this, Tess. I also have a Medtronic AdaptiveStim. Mine was doing the same thing when I first had it implanted. My rep told me not to have any of the other setting up and running because that's what drains the battery quickly. So now I just keep it on one setting. If I need to change to a different setting then I ramp my current setting way down. Also I have my amplitude running slower. That also buys some battery time.

Shucks tho, If you've been in touch with your Reps, I'm sure they would have pointed out the obvious so maybe there is a problem with the battery. I sure hope not.

Our good friend Jackie had to have her battery changed out.
Hopefully she will see this and have something to offer.
Meanwhile, you are in my prayers and whatever is the cause, I pray that it's an easy fix.

Caring,
Rae
