We can look sort of funny sometimes, too! Gee, you should see me on a dance floor..... har har...... no, I did used to know that pretty well and Cleo and I went to dances all over to shake a leg.

Its interesting to hear the debate bout leads V paddles. I wasnt aware of the paddles. I have the leads, 2 in my lower back. I can only imagine that having the paddles put in would have been quite painful post surgery, as having the leads certainly is, but hopefully worth it all.
Also were you all asleep while having your SCS implanted? I wasnt!!!!
which I must admit at first I thought 'oh how am I going to survive'....however, they did give me some 'light' sedation and lots and lots of local anaestetic (apologies bout spelling
). So it was relatively pain free.....of what I can remember. Amazing even though I was awake and was aware of my surroundings and could tell my Consultant where I had the 'feeling' once he switched on the leads, for the life of me I cant remember a lot else of those 3 hours in surgery!!!!! weird, or maybe for the best
Tell me everyone how long post surgery are you all? My back problem started out as pains in both legs one morning, with my backing 'clicking' something in the evening, and from there as they say was downhill ever since........can I ask what happened to you all?
