Saying Hi after being MIA for a while..with GOOD news!
 

Hi all! I have been MIA for a while, but trying to at least read stuff. I was spending A LOT of time in therapy.

In the meantime, I have had a successful trial SCS and am scheduled for the permanent one! My insurance FINALLY got their act together and approved it! I go in on Monday!

Hopefully with less therapy and feeling a bit better soon, I can be on here more. :)

Thus we PRAY Puppy
 

How wondrous to know your Trial was successful and your permanent is so near. That therapy will lapse for a while post surgery as you heal, then take up again in a few weeks to assure you are healing well from the "invasiveness." Take it easy. Go with the flow for your perm and when you are programmed, hopefully and God willing you will be able to manage your pain with solely the stim as I do.

Praying for you!

Hi Puppy

By now you should be home and recovering from your implant. I am praying that it will be successful and the recovery will go smoothly. Remember BLAST!

So glad you're back. Can't wait to hear your updates.

Praying for Puppy, yup!!:grouphug:

Thank you all! :) Everything was a success!

I had a day or so where the unit was being ignorant and not working properly, but we programmed around that issue. :) Now I am feeling MUCH better. Now is the hard part...I feel better, but still must take it easy. All in all, I am pleased so far. :)
