I was, however, on a very low dose and still am according to the doctors. They start you out on the lowest amount of medication, then increase each month until the correct dosage is found that offers the best relief for that particular patient. It is a wonderful invention, and has saved many lives, I am sure. There is another brand of pump, but this pump has many more advantages, than does the other brand. It is all done under the skin.
Nothing shows and it is a very painless surgery which is done as an outpatient.
I must say, with all honesty, that the PUMP has literally saved my life. I never thought I would go from praying for death to being engaged, all in one year's time.
