I am anxious to hear your answer as my doc says i may have to have the v3 lead put up my spine if it does not work where it is now. Let me know. Thank you again for your email. Hope to talk to you soon

Hi Cheryl-
Even though our uses are dramatically different, I find that I must, emphasize MUST, vary the signal depending on situation, posture, activity, and the like. I have found no single "this is it" setting which addresses all needs for my stim. Maybe yours is the same situation.

Yesterday, talking with my surgeon, I learned folks tend to very their signal use often. This is why my remote is one of my "constant companions."

ASAP,
