I had a boston scientific vici stent placed in my left iliac vein and have had severe pain and cramping that have been unable to resolved since.The stent was placed for what was thought to be mays thurner but it did not resolve my leg issue and instead gave me terrible pelvic cramping and back pain that continues.All medical tests have been exhausted to determine the cause.I was assured by the doctor that the material of the stent is a nerd and that it is unreasonable to consider sensitivity to the material.I have autoimmune disorders which make me susceptible for reactivity.There should really be required testing or warnings for all patients that are going to receive the "stance".I also was not informed that the stent could not be removed without being life-threatening.They should be required.Fda safety report id # (b)(4).
