Glad to hear you could instantly feel a difference. I don't remember what it's like to NOT have pain.

THanks for sharing!
I wish you the best of luck. I am still healing- and it looks like it's a slow process, but my incision sites and the lead locations are where my pain is right now. My doctor requires me to wear my neck brace for two months. The real yucky part of the experience is... You can't shower for the time the trial is in, or the first week the permanent one is in. Sponge baths are all you can do. It's worth it though...assuming the trial works for you.
Keep me posted.
