Hi! I am still doing great with my stim. I spoke tothe rep today and to my doctor and we have scheduled an appointment with the neurosurgeon for 3/14 though the doctor did tell me that it could take as long as 6-8 weeks to get the permanent as they want to be sure that my back is healed from all the attempts he had to make for the trial. My insurance has already approved the permanent one so that is one hurdle we are already through! Now I am trying to brace myself for what it will be like on Wednesday when they take the trial stim away from me. I have been off all pain meds for 11 months though I am pretty sure that I will need some when the stim is gone because i think it might be a little overwhelming going from no pain back to all that pain. I just need to stay focused on that light at the end of the tunel, it is really there this time!!! Thank you all sooooo much!!!

WOW! twins! everywhere!!! my boys are only 3 years old and I hope to be able to run and jump and play with them as I feel like I have missed out on so much having to sit and watch.


Hope everyone is great! thanks for all the support and encouragement!
