Help!! I think I'm about to loose my mind
 
Had medtronic SCS implanted on 12/15/2014 has been working pretty well but have quite a bit of bleed over from right leg into left leg that double stimulates my lower buttocks. Have had several reprogramming sessions,added new programs,still having major pain and burning in that area. If I turn stim down gets better but my back pain gets much worse and vise versa if I turn stim up back pain gets better but pain in lower buttocks and burning gets much worse. Has anyone experienced this and any suggestions what to do? I'm about to loose my mind. Been back at work now for a month need stim to get though the night shift! Not sure I can handle the trade off.

It all takes time
 
For all of us we have had different progress with the beginning of having our implants put in. Do hang in there, persevere with your rep and keep on at them until you can get the right program balance. If they don't hear from you they move on very quickly to their next patient/client and then you get lost in their time scheduling. I have a nevro and it operates very differ Ely to yours so hopefull one of the Medtronic users will come by and share their stories. :hug:
