My opinion is if you are highly active- paddles. If not try percs. A recent article showed that the 20 lead 5x4 has best results - most options. Bs has a 32 lead ipg. I have a medtronics 565 - one very good program.
I bend, have lerched hiking, etc. etc. etc. They have been in 2 + months. I have no fear of dislocation. Pain is down >50%. Walking range doubled. Biking range up 500%+. I sleep better. Life isn't perfect but it's not bad. It was bad before.
If the trial leaves you with a WOW feeling, get it in! If not, be Leary.

Thank you for getting back to me about my questions. I Think I am going see what this doc that I have to see Sept 4th prefers to use then go from there. I consider myself very active person. I have my photography business I have focused a lot of my energy as of lately to get it off the ground. My little girl looks to me for help with her activities in school. I would love to be able to go biking again especially now that my little girl is able to ride her bike very well.
