Thanks Mark56. I thought I had remembered you saying you have paddles. I really thought changing out the type of leads would be the answer.

The St Jude rep and my dr were both puzzled and at a loss at my appt Friday. This really threw the rep for a loop - when he was programming the thoracic stim, my right arm was tingling and the cervical stim was off!

I might be way off, but I wonder if my cervical battery has anything to do with the pressure I am feeling since it is still in the back?? The pressure is about an inch to the right of the battery.

I don't know, I am frustrated. I go back to work on Monday and was hoping to be so much better after this second time around.

Thanks for listening...Nanc
