BAHH! 
Dawn't EVEN get me started on the decline of our healthcare system due to things like THIS. It's absolutely disgusting what the doctor's make on these.....the Reps, big Pharma, all of that cr@p.
What REALLY ticks me off is how some of the Dr's 'push' for these things and then leave the patient to deal with the problems that may come up ...
kinda like leaving them high and dry.....
once they get their $$$$$ $$$$$ kickback.
My trial cost $30K and the perm cost well over $100K. This of course does NOT include a decent thorough follow up to make sure things are in order.....so the extra expense for me was my SELF-ORDERED lumbar x-ray, which revealed a migrated lead, of which was removed (technically another 'surgical procedure' - not sure how much that was)
GOOD LORD you'd THINK they'd at least throw in a complimentary coffee mug or SOMEthing.
Thanks for having me RANT about
