By now, the subject is getting old without any tangible changes in the situation. Despite a massive hue and cry from patients, Fresenius is still shipping cycler cassettes with the 15-foot patient and drain lines. Although I have reached out to three government agencies and the CEO of Fresenius NA, I have received nothing back. Until…

Recently, out of the blue, I received a package from Fresenius containing several kinds of biohazard plastic bags and instructions to double bag the item I complained about. On the surface, I was asked to send Fresenius one of the new cassettes for their complaint department to do whatever with. The right hand at Fresenius doesn’t know what the left hand is doing.

Meanwhile, we the patients continue to suffer.
