Confused Looks Like I need to make an appt with pain doc again

I think I have to go back to my pain doc again because I am having some issues. I had my last revision done in November and they put in the paddle leads, I was really happy because I was able to walk and the pain was a bit better. Within the last month or so though I started noticing problems again, my legs are going numb like off and on before (mostly if I am sitting doing school work or if I am sitting on the floor playing with the dog) and now I can't even sleep because every time I lay down they start burning again I tried turning it up but then when my stim is too high it makes me have trouble sleeping. I have had it reprogrammed twice because it kept going into my abdomen again and that helped a bit but this pain is starting to go over my stimulation coverage and I am worried that I should talk to my doctor about it. I haven't seen him since my recovery appt last year and I was really hoping I would not have to see him at all. Does anyone else have these types of problems after the stim has been a long time? This is so frustrating and has been a very bad week for me for many reasons Take care
