Well Tinkster, I am sad to say the very least that all has been so difficult for you in this adventure. Most do not go the way of difficulty you experience once the Trial has been positive, but math and the uniqueness of each human body has to collide every once in a while with results the likes of which are dragging you down.
Tchr012, RRae, and PoohAC have had some sort of revision or replacement work, while Jackie has had a bad battery removed and replaced since hers never worked porperly or would charge. You may want to reach out to them, or they will reach to you since we will keep this at the top of the list!
Prayin for a better solution for you,
