Thumbs up Welcome babybear!

The 'vibrator' comment takes the cake!
....and here I thought we'd thought of every possible naughtiness there is!

Thank you for coming to NT to share your trial! Sounds like you are needing the stim in the same area I do. I can't even describe how wonderful the soothing 'buzzing' is in my legs, other than to picture the happiest cat in the world sitting on your legs........PUUUURRRRrrrrrinnng
I do get the stim in my lower back, but the pain there is different than the burning RSD/CRPS pain in legs.

I remember very well day 3 of my trial. That's when the 'surgical' pain from the trial implant went away and it was like all of a sudden the curtains opened wide and I was able to experience what it feels like NOT to have that pain....well, the pain is still there of course, but the stim did a great job of covering over. I was so elated, giggling and laughing with my kids. I had forgot what a good belly laugh can do to one's outlook on life.

I hope and pray you have a good experience w/your trial, and like Pam reminds us how important it is to follow all the rules, so as not to suffer consequences of a migrated lead or such.
Check out the very valuable info that is at the top of this forum in the 'Stickie' section. It spells a lot of it out very clearly and easy to understand.

It's great to have you and I sure hope you stick around to let us know how this unfolds for you.! Lotsa great support here.
