AMS700CX pump very difficult to inflate
I will caveat this by saying I'm only on day 7 post op but on day 2, we see the nurse for drain removal and deflation. Due to the excruciating pain of drain removal there was only a small attempt at deflation, now 7 days in I'm comfortable enough to have a go at deflating some more which I have done this has caused some pain so I've tried to partially inflate to 'take up some slack' the 1st half a dozen attempts and the pump wouldn't work. Solid no action , I read the instructions and it says to deflate then hard and sharp inflate and there should be a click. I heard that click and the pump did function to my relief but tried a 2nd pump and the pump again did nothing, pressing really hard and it doesn't operate. Feel like there's something not right here. In my own mind this shouldn't be so tough to operate. Truth be told I was expecting operating force of not much more than crushing a big unripe grape between my fingers. It's currently significantly more than that
