Hi Arvella
I have a Boston Sci stimulator. There are three reps who cover the area I live in. My first rep was great, spent a lot of time getting the stimulation in my upper abdomen, right in the center where I needed coverage. The initial implant took a long time to cover the right spot. Then my rep was transferred to another area. The other reps tried to tweek as necessary but never quite covered the spot. My first rep happened to fill in in my area and immediately was able to adjust the settings. It's all about patience and experience. Don't give up. Let your doctor know how frustrated you are and ask for another rep,, maybe the territory manager who might have more experience.
Good luck.
Sandy
