i've heard of people (even seen FDA warnings on youtube) about medtronic's pumps. chiefly;

- bowel incontinence below T10
- pain at site under ribcage
- medtronic pump - many issues - disconnections, flipping over, overdoses, underdoses, etc.

has anyone had or heard of codman pumps? http://www.codmanpumps.com/

i can't find anything on the interwebs other than their own site.

thanks,
jeanne
