God bless you Bob. You are a welcome relief in honesty, candidness and humor. I'm so glad you're here. You give a completely honest look at what the pump will be like and that's what's needed. Nothing is 100%.

I had the SCS for 6 months and the stupid thing didn't work right and it went south and tried to work itself out of me. they said i didn't have enough fat content in my body. well, then why did they do the trial of the morphine pump on me since it's much bigger? duh. they got my hopes up cause it took my pain away and then said i couldn't have it. grrrrr.

anyway, i'm glad you're doing better, painwise. i know you're not pain-free but we won't ever be. we can pray tho. god bless you. you are a pillar of strength. take care. hugs, lee
