Re: Does an AMS 700 CX implant soften up over time

Re: Broken again?
I replied to you before! I think you need to become more forceful!! I would speak to your doctor… you don’t mention his name…. 3 in a year??? Not acceptable. If he does enough business with ams they will work with him to get everything covered as well as the hospital can contribute as well. It would...

Re: Broken again?
John HC…. It sounds like you have had more than your share of problems with AMS…. I don’t know if you’re aware that these have a “parts warranty ”.

But, I looked on the fda recall list and I too found my number on the list. However when I called the ams liaison she explained that many people have the sa...

Pump replacement
I have an ams 700 cx…. Implanted 05/22. The pump is bad and needs to be replaced:
Has anyone had this procedure and how does it compare to the initial implant surgery.
Meaning pain, recovery time, likely to fail a 2nd time…etc
Any information or comments are appreciated
Thanks
