Hi emtmom! Echoing Rrae's comment regarding doctor supplied information, my doc gave me a DVD pack on the product we are considering, the ANS EON Mini. The pack came loaded with information, the DVD, and contact information such that I could be in touch with a patient ambassador or two, as I have. Thoroughly reviewing such information in addition to the discussions found on this site will be best for bringing you up to speed. Golly, and down to the ultra-practical, a patient ambassador with whom I spoke at length even talked me through toilet use during the Trial. Now, that was pretty up close and personal, but she was just VERY forthcoming with information in aid of considering any SCS procedure!

I agree with other posts on your thread, I ache to learn of someone so young as you enduring the trials of pain as you now live. May you find the means through this discussion and your ongoing study to transcend the pain and live unencumbered with aches! I am approaching the Trial phase on my path. I just have to get beyond the psych review process upcoming next week..... should be fun , NOT. Oh, well, gotta follow the multidisciplinary standards of care as my surgeon told me this week.

ALL of the BEST to YOU!!
