Bless your heart!!! My gosh! WHY doesn't MedTronic have a LIST of everyone who has this pump installed???? They SHOULD have!!! And I'm sure they DO!! You should have gotten a PERSONAL e-mail from MedTronic!! There is no doubt in my mind that they know who has their pumps and stimulators installed -- each and every one!!! This is an outrage, and I'd certainly WRITE and raise CAIN!!!

You should have been notified the minute they found out there was a defect. You could have taken care of it immediately! They OWE it to their patients.

Boy, I'd be hopping mad right now. I was supposed to have a pump installed, but due to my "body type" I couldn't have it. Guess I'm glad now.

Take care -- I pray things turn out ok for you. God bless & thanks for alerting everyone! Hugs, Lee
