Congrats on your successfull implant!! I've had mine for 3wks and like it alot! Yes, you will feel discomfort at the incision sites. I layed on ice the first week. It gets better every day. Just follow the restriction guidelines. I have the Medtronic Ultra (smallest model)

Sounds like you and I have the same pain issues (both legs mostly, but the SCS also has a program to cover my lower back)
I was thrilled about that!

Let me give you the link to the actual SCS forum here at NeuroTalk ..... just click on

Hope to see you there!
