I have to ask: what are the girls' names? They are beautiful. LOL

Thank you so much for your experience. I think all experiences with this should be shared. I do know that people who have a good outcome tend to fall off the face of the earth and other members tend not to hear from them all too often, at least not until something goes wrong and they are looking for the support again.

I am currently just into my trial. My knee and hip have both tried acting up today, you know during starting dinner (hubby finished) and doing one load of dishes (needed forks). I was quickly amazed at how adjusting the level of pulsating I received to either spot (can be programmed to any of 4 locations) eliminated my pain. Just put it on the back burner. I enjoyed that part.

I have yet to do more strenuous things, like a nature walk (I really want a nature walk, oh and to go hiking, but that is definitely a ways off). That will be a true test of this blessing I have been given. Any pain free day is a blessing.

I am NOT looking forward to after the trial is removed and I have to wait for the perm to be put in. I will definitely be counting down the days. I have already informed my doc that he needs to put me on the schedule.

Hugs to all.

to hear that you are still getting great relief............please make sure you do not overdo things..............

my post was not to scare you off..........just the opposite.........frank said IF he knew how the incision would have been, the pain included with the surgery, etc...he doesn't know if he would have gone through with it...........your rsd is lower tho right? so your incision would be in your back like your trial is..........his trial was also in his back, but the perm is in his neck and head.....................

walking is great for you i would think.....no to strenuous tho....no hiking........laffff just walking..............

enjoy the pain free times.........he has not turned his off yet...........and never wants to...laffff he has experimented wiht the settings but always goes back to the one he started with.............he can just move his neck, and wha la the stimulation goes to different parts of his arm..........neat huh? laffffff

have a great day.................claudia
