There is a wonderful article in the March Good Housekeeping magazine that could help some people decide whether or not they want any type of implant surgery done.....I had the interstim implant and there wasn't this kind of information available when I made my decisison.
The article is very long but the short side of the story is.....The FDA does NOT test OR regulate the use of implant devices. When there is a defective device the manufacturer notifies the dr, then you better pray that your dr notifies you.
I am sorry I don't know how to get to magazine links. Maybe someone could help me out with that
