Nanc......I can speak about my trial which lasted what seemed forever and laying in the position I was in without almost no anesthesia was prolonged and painful. The rep tried to program the stim for quite some time before I could leave recovery area and go home. He finally had me standing while trying to program again and again. Standing in one spot for me is quite painful. Does that mean it will happen to everyone NO !! I was not going to sugar coat it either.

Actually, my concern for Kelly is the fact she is hoping to get pregnant. Her doctor may be qualified to work with her pain; but how qualified is he to know that a stimulator is okay for a pregnant woman? I believe that question needs a very qualified doctor to answer.
