Default After your permanent is placed: how often do you keep stim switched on?

Because of one thing and another I've not had my stim on high at all. Just low enough to cause that massaging thurm in my leg. If I turn it up a lot higher it causes my back to spasm as the sensation starts at my hip down.

I actually don't want to lose the sensation from my hip as it does feel like, though I'm obviously not having it high enough to do much about the pain.

To be honest, I'm quite ok with this as I know I won't get the coverage for me to come off meds or not to use crutches .. Particularly as I have drop foot in my left foot.

Do you all just turn the stim on and keep it at one sensation or play about with the strengths?
