Thank you all for you replies. Mark, I read you thread. Thanks for the good cry and all the wonderful information, I needed both. It is such a comfort to me to know that there are others out there going through this. The waiting game on scheduling my trial procedure is starting to get to me. I do have a very good relationship with my PM doc. I do believe he has my best interests at heart. He's already proved that by going to bat for me on getting the SCS trial.

BTW, I'm not worried about the thingy trying to work it's way out of my body because there's not enough fat to hold it in. I have plenty of chunk to keep in place. If fact, I'd be glad to share some if anyone needs it.

Thanks again, I'll keep you posted.
