    I have had pump for 18 months, I will never take another pill . You don't get the Hugh feeling but you don't feel pain. You can time for extra dose, and now the have hand held unit for patients to use. The weather kills me but now I have it under control, and my liver is coming chronic pain from degerative arthritis. The pump has given me enough of pain relief to enjoy my family, I still have bad days but if you monitor the barometer I can take steroids to be proactive to pain. Best year of my life first year I haven't had a bad thought to end my pain, check out Surgeon in have flowonix, great I have my own rep, gets filled every 40 days , good luck

    Glad you're having relief. Pump therapy can be a life saver. Medtronic has implanted over 250,000 pumps and has years of leading technology. If it were me or my mother that had to get a pump, it would definitely be Medtronic. By the way, be very aware of the precautions you will need to go through for an MRI and do not take for granted that the hospital staff knows what you have or how it functions. You're a pioneer for the flowonix company product. Act accordingly and be safe.

    Really? Must not like your mother then. MDT pump is same old technology from '90's, right? Motor and rotor goes round and round...until it stalls when drugs leech through the tubing? What's that called? Oh yeah. Motor stalls. And with all those deaths you ignored how many Fda warnings? 27? Is that the right number? Until the govt took you to court and then you agreed that your pump sucks and entered a consent decree where you were told to stop making it until you fixed it unless you scam a doc and their patient to signing off it was necessary that only your pump could save the day? Fixed it yet? And how many forms are you getting signed off?

    With flow pump you do need to have pump reset after Mri. That is a fact. And they tell you that right up front.

    Mdt pump labeling says you have to have pump checked following Mri. That's the fda labeling you put out right? But do you do it? No. Hope no one gets hurt becauseyouignore your own fda required procedures.

    But you tell this patient he is a pioneer? Better a pioneer with latest technology and much better pump, then being the canary in the coal mine with a flawed pump and a lazy sales rep. And by the way, didn't Fda approve the flow pump? 4 years ago?

    When it's you and the doc, bs 'em all you want. But don't try and bs a patient. That's stooping way too low even for you guys.

    This is the longest post of bs I've read on this site. You've been listening to someone at Flowonix for too long. You've been brainwashed with half-truths to make your story sound compelling. Never once has Medtronic been told to stop making pumps or stop implanting them. We complete Mri checks often, but like you pointed out, "hope no one gets hurt" - it's been decades that MDT pumps have been run through MRIs and have proven safe. Can you say that about Flowonix? Multiple deaths from the drug dumping into the patient during an MRI. Can't happen with the Medtronic pump. And where on earth did you pull "lazy field personnel" from? My team are some of the hardest working people I've ever met. Go spew your garbage elsewhere.

    I was connected directly by FLowonix yesterday. They are rapidly growing their Sales force, (in select markets throughout the nation) base salary: 70-75, Total comp 1st year 160 with a 6 month garentee. and a small territory. I've never worked in the pain therapy division with MDT but in a different neurolodulation MDT and another neurolodulation company. I'm in Dalles, the MDT senior pain therapy rep is not only a good friend of mine, we use to co-market together and I consider him my mentor.... However, it's like a tugawar inside me, I'm currently unemployed (recent RIF in my company) with a "heard" of children to provide for.... I know MTD is doing a lot of layoffs in different divisions lately, and adding products to reps, displacing some clinicals specialist... I would prefer being with MDT, but family needs first.... FYI I was told they plan to have these openings hired in a little over 3 weeks (from what I was told)

    Sad but very true. Human Resources continues to strive towards their quotas.

    Liked the valve technology w Prometra. The Mri safety fix is "cheesy" and still insufficient w regards to patient safety. A rotating-door field team ... Is a recipe for disaster.

    As I understand it, their pump shuts off during an MRI (like ours can but rarely does - does anyone actually check patients after an mri these days?). Seems safe but inconvenient?

    That field team is looking pretty good these days. Anyone know why they seem to be getting all the talent?

    I've noticed the big trend to relieve the older force in favor of the younger reps. Cant really do much about it.

    This post wreaks of an old Mdt rep that was pushed out and now is posting shade on cafepharma. Loser.

    Everyone interested in Medtronic Synchromed range of pumps please check this Youtube video titled “The Synchromed Pump. How the deaths, pain, and suffering would have been prevented?”. This video allows you, the viewer, to made aware of the horrifying discovery that as early as 1998, Medtronic had already known about the numerous dangerous risk events and side effects which have since resulted in the many deaths, injuries, and health complications associated with the use of its range of Synchromed Infusion Pumps.
