It's finally going to happen - my SCS implant is scheduled for Dec 28th. Whoo Hoo! I've read all your posts for over 14 months now and finally it's going to be my turn. I'm only going to have the one surgery - we will do the trial on the operating room table, then proceed with the implant. Yeah! I am very relieved that I don't have to do the laminectomy and then go home for a week to see if the SCS works. I'm so happy to finally be at this point - you have no idea how happy!
