I know I have no choice, but the stories I have read indicate the revision may not even work. Can anyone tell me success stories? Thanks.

Since I had an unsuccessful trial; I never did get an implant. It appears from many posts; it is very difficult to get complete coverage. It's a hard decision. Often the leads move or scar tissue which forms pretty quickly can push leads from original area. I hope someone with past experience will respond.
