Oh hey Lynny..... I feel your frustration at not gaining relief.... if any at all. After all, if you are still on high dosage opiates to manage pain I am wondering whether you have attained any relief from your unit. You mention four leads were implanted... with me there were two paddles placed and our results are markedly different! Were so many leads used in your situation due to a broad range of application which was attempted, such as trigeminal neuralgia and arm pain or both thoracic and lumbar pain? It just seems to me from an application perspective, the attempt may have been too aggressive to cover more area than is achievable with a single generator---- assuming that is your situation. My two paddles connect to a single generator dosing me adequately from the waist down as my paddle implant is at T8/T9.
I really feel for you Lynny!!
