Previously a walk down my driveway was it for me. My rep says the jolts will continue on the trial but if I choose to have a perm implant they will go away after 6-8 weeks (is this true?) I think the back pain will go away so I am in this for the long haul. I have until Monday (7 days) to decide if we move forward. Anyone else with advise or suggestions.....even hugs would help. Thanks to such a great group. I feel better already. (CRPS Type II in right foot). Lisa
