VNS problems

Tue, 01/09/2018 - 14:33
I have had a VNS for over 5yrs. For the past month I have had to keep the magnet taped over it because it continuously goes off I cough until I get sick. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem. My original neurologist that had it put in left and the one I have now is not very experienced with it I can't even get in until my next appointment to see him.
