I'm glad to hear about someone who has had the stimulator inserted. I was diagnosed almost a year ago with ON and have been getting the injections every 2 months (or sooner depending on the pain). Because of this, the doc informed me of the option of the stimulator because he doesn't feel comfortable doing the injections so frequently. I really just want the pain to be gone. It hurts to lay down, drive, dance, or pretty much do most things, depending on how bad the pain is that day. I was wondering...do you notice the stimulator on a daily basis? Can you feel it or is it something that is very subtle?

thanks! and btw, I'm new to the board. So glad to have found you all!

-Ash
