Thank you BioBased, littlepaw and DejaVu

BioBased, I am glad you are on your way to regaining back some mobility - there are few like you who make it a point to share everything and anything that has worked even the slightest, in your signature w. modalities etc. littlepaw, not many can personalize their discussions as well as you can and that makes us all feel so important and thankful to be talking to you. I think it's great you're able to do so much for in the way of reading/literature to be informed and it's something I have to get better at myself. Deja, my prayers are that you're feeling better in spite of your recent flare up and am glad to hear the good news with your doctors. Thank you for the link as well, I'll now have something to look at tonight! My appointment is soon and I mean very soon, so I'm asking for some more guidance and support. My concerns re: the SCS are the down/recovery time from incisions and other horrifying things I've heard about it. I'll definitely inquire about the changing technologies of neurostimulators and if I'll get one that's more up to date and less invasive. I hope not to startle my team with so many questions and that they know I'm trying to do what's best for me and not trying to stand them up or teach them anything because I am aware that they are the experts! Really, I just need some more options on the table and probably a set schedule of where it'll go from here...
for the rest plz feel free to chime in NYM
