The patient went in to see gi several months ago for refractory n/v.She was told that her settings were already very high, but the gi did adjust the settings per patient.For a few months she was fine.However for the past 2 two months, patient has been experiencing "surges".When occurring, she can time the surges every 8 seconds, but they come and go throughout the day or every couple days.She has seen her surgeon and the managing gi for these concerns.She saw her gi (dr.Kale) who thought after checking with programmer everything looked ok.Surgeon bruce smith placed the device but has since retired, so she recently saw dr (b)(6), who told her to go back to gi to have device interrogated.She has another telehealth appt today with gi at 2:45 cst.
