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
Well, that's a bummer!! I hate when they have to change appointments around like that. Hope it is not too bad on you!!

My thoracic stim was really for the butt area and down my legs, they did that higher program to make sure they got it all since I started hurting a little higher...it was too high. I too had to go back for tweaking quite a bit, but they can't do much more with my thoracic one since I have extra lower back pain/pressure when I turn it up My cervical stim has been good for a while now!

Good luck and hope you have a great weekend too!
