I am so glad you found this thread too and even more happy you took the time to share but best and most important is that it is helping you manage the pain !
It seems that Colorado has a fair amount of great Doctors that are doing stim implants and having great many successful outcomes as of late.

can I ask if you were awake at all during either your trail surgery and or your final implant surgery??
where is your battery placed?? is it rechargeable?? what type is it I have medtronics .. is it Boston scientific, St Jude ??

I so hope very badly that you come back and share a bit more.You will help so many others by sharing and I would be so grateful to you for adding and contributing to this thread. It would truly mean ALLOT... to me and to so many others .
I pray you continue to gain control and manage the pain so you are able to lower the meds..and have your life back.
I have So much Gratitude for you sharing and posting. Bless you life long!
PEACE
