Default

placement depends on treatment area. if legs are what you want mostly treated then the pack will go lower torso and should never be put in beltline(like mine). when i lay on my back it feels like itsgoing to poke thru the skin. hopefully its coming out soon as the scs never worked for me.

if arms are to be treated then it is placed up high(upper torso). i forget where is the best spot though.

i know pumps should always be put in the side and not the back. one doc who had done over 700 pumps told me he has never put pumps in the back and has done countless revisions from other docs who have put the pump in the back. i am currently going thru pump trial so i asked lots of questions about the pump last few weeks.
