I had one company (Medtronic) for the trial and another (Boston Scientific) for the permanent implant. I don't have a lot of experience with Medtronic since my trial was only 3 days. I do prefer the 'equipment' with Boston Scientific though. I don't need to charge as often as the rep from Medtronic said that I would need to and the technology is supposedly better.

I think overall it doesn't matter too much on company because they all generally work the same. I just prefer Boston Scientific with the experiences I have had.

Good luck as you go through this journey!
