My friend, your compliments Could cause one's head to swell making it hard to pass through doorways . NOT. They do feel like good gentle hugs, so thank you.

Regarding the stim effect altering as one changes position or turns head while walking [and maybe chewing gum as well] it does vary. For instance lying down in bed after having the stim ramped up for my daily work doesn't JOLT, but it does dramatically intensify the effect, thus, I tend to turn it down when lying in bed or reclining in a recliner.

Now as to Paul [we are having a group of Paul people start up here n'est ce pas?] I am encouraged he has avoided opiates to far. This could bode well for the success of the Trial if not the ultimate implant due to avoidance of the withdrawal difficulties.

So Rachel, thank you for your mission to help, and may you be well in all things, knowing now I am praying for you and new friend Paul,
