Patient experiences

“

The biggest benefit is not having to go to the hospital several times a week. It takes a lot of time and you have to lie there sometimes for a day in addition to be driven back and forth between the ward and the X-ray. Even symptom relief: Now I can not only drain myself, I can even decide freely when I want to drain based on symptoms. This way I avoid the bloated feeling and the breathing feels easier.
