Had FH 10 installed Oct this year, great job but implant is right on belt line so causes a little trouble. This is just to suggest patient asks about positioning post trial and pre implant

I guess I am surprised they did put it there - with your name and the word belt, presumably you are a male - men wear belts often, which makes it even more surprising to me! Someone wasn’t thinking ahead! Hope you have given them loud and clear feedback! I was asked what positions I most often am in at home i.e. I recline on couch with pillows often - what sleeping positions I preferred, which side, etc. It all seemed logical to me, so makes it more surprising that your belt and waist weren’t closely considered. That would indeed be annoying!

Yes, I heard that if you are going to get the permanent implant and you wear a belt, you should put on the belt you usually wear it and mark a spot under the belt on the side were the generator/battery will be positioned. I hope this helps the guys.
