Thanks, the pump is sounding pretty good. Hope, that is terrible that they won't give you the permanent pump. It might be good if they had to live with the pain for a few weeks before they made any decision on who should get one and who shouldn't.

Is there anyone else who has the pump? I'd really like to hear details on the surgery and how long you were in the hospital, how much pain was involved in the procedure, how long before you got relief, etc.
