I won't be bungie jumping, Mary.... sorry.. and SCS rep's are not to be found now!!! What the heck...

Jcompere CRPS/SCS implant! I just got back from my doctors after having the permanate SCS implanted 3 wks ago. I am starting to experience back pain along the leads and the implant site is very sore. I was told to message the back and implant site to keep everything from tightening up. He expressed how important it is to stretch the tissue out durning the healing process. I told him I was unhappy with where the implant was placed(I have the paddels @c2-c3) the implant ended up on my waist line Where my clothing irritates. He agreeded with me and said he was following the Boston Scientific Rep's direction for where it should go. She was worried about my bra line!!! My result is not as good as the trial when I use 2 of my programs(the best ones) it causes my right shoulder to jerk when I turn up the signal. Has any one had problems like this? According to many of you this is mild so far.
