Information was received from a patient (pt) who was implanted with an implantable neurostimulator (ins).The reason for the call was in the last week the pt's stimulator was not working right.When the patient used their patient programmer to adjust their therapy, they were not feeling relief.The patient said they could feel the stimulation sometimes but not all the time.A sudden move would allow them to know it was on since they could feel stimulation sometimes but not all the time.The patient mentioned that they had one of their implants die before and they knew what that felt like so they had a feeling this ins battery was dying as well.The pt wanted to find a doctor that can work with their device.Agent emailed patient physician listings.
