Hi i'm Susan and live in central PA am married to a wonderful man who thank God takes care of me I have multiple nerve problems and have been tested for MS several times I just don't fit the criteria??? but my drs keep pluigging away. I had the medtronics unit implanted since 2004 but I am going with the St Judes unit this time my new implant will be in June 2012 can't wait I have been with out my unit since March and I am feeling the pain. There was much damage from migration of the old unit and dr wanted to let things heal before the new unit implant. OCH> I just come upon this site I would love to hear from any cervical implants how things have gone for them I had many problems and am interested if I may have brought them on myself by too much activity. I have recently been forced to accept disability and stay at home which is very depressing and boring i am unable to spend too much time on computer as typing and using the mouse can set my pain over the limit. hope thing change with new unit. oh well say more next time.
