Pain pump failure

I couldn’t find my output anywhere on my phone but I have this device for 2 and 1/2 years so yours may be different than mine. I get a printout after my visits. I’ll have to take a look at it but it’s always in my purse and I’m too lazy right now to get up. Long day.

@mina2021 I have a Medtronic pain pump. It has a remote which allows me to give myself a few shots of extra medication each day(six, currently). These are called "boluses". After each bolus, I can scroll down on the remote and see all my current setting...how much I am receiving each day; how much each bolus gives me. I am guessing that your pump is connected to your phone via bluetooth. The printout you get should have all this information. If not, ask your doctor to share that with you next time you visit. Or, you could call the office and ask them for it.
