He vaccums, does the dishes, shops and does the laundry--even when I'm not laid up. And my kids help me too, so I am very lucky. Ok enough bragging.
So 3 days until I see the doctor--can't wait!!! I haven't felt good since the surgery. Has anyone ever felt nausea everyday after the stimulator was implanted? Every day my stomach hurts and I feel nauseas. Since the surgery (Jan 3) I have lost 9 pounds. I really don't need to lose any weight--maybe at that most 3-4. Lost weight without trying. I wonder if my body is rejecting the stimulator and that is why it moved?? Just wondering.........
Thanks for listening

Hi Lynn!
I am with you, my husband has been wonderful with all that I have been through, which is so important to have that kind of support. I do not know where I'd be without mine

Question - does your stimulator stimulate your abdomen, or close to it? One of the programs on my thoracic one was set to stimulate a little too high and it really made me nauseous. They did that one program a little higher to cover my whole hip area. I had to stop using that one!

Good luck at the doctor!!
