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!!

The stimulator is for the sciatic and the butt area and only for the right leg. The implant is in the thoracic area. They had it working at one point where I was getting some relief. But like everyone else I had to keep going and getting tweeked. The last time I went in and they couldn't get it to the area that I needed that is when we discovered that it moved. I still have the nausea feeling and the stimulator has been turned off for 2 weeks. The doctor's office called yesterday and changed my appointment for Monday. He had some kind of surgery this morning. Now I'm going to be shoved in with everyone else for Monday and probably have a 3 hour wait--you know how much I love to wait!!! NOT!!!
Anyway everyone have a great weekend and can't wait until Monday
