The only time I have had an itchy generator site is when it has been healing or the time I sunburned it

I was wondering about massages and howwww to go about getting one. I mean, I'd be nervous regarding the lead wires and whatnot...... Do you just indicate to the mesooose (?) that you have this in your back and are they just extra 'careful' around that area? Right? Just avoid having them mess with that area? ![]() |

Mark & Pooh,
I'm pretty sure the area has healed now. It's been almost 6 months....boy, has it really been almost 6 months already!!! I didn't have the itching until recently when I started exercising more. It's not like I have a rash or anything just noticing that it itches more..... Rae, Yes, I showed her where the battery was and where the leads and paddle were so she didn't massage those areas at all. I'm still a little nervous about the leads moving (even with the paddle) and she totally understood. She actually was a bit hesitate to massage those areas as well. Although, I can tell you that the areas of my back where she did massage were still pretty tender. It's nice to finally start getting my life back and doing things that I haven't did in a really long time!! I actually walked 2 miles at one time this past weekend. The last time I was ABLE to walk/run 2 miles at one time was about 7 years ago. This monster called pain that has clung to me and weighed me down to the point where I didn't think there would be much of a future, if any, was suddenly disappearing with every step I took. I will never ever forget how it made me feel. It will stay with me for the rest of my life. It was first hope.....then freedom.....and then surprisingly faith. Not just the religious aspect but the faith you put in yourself and in others. I believe that you are not given anything you cannot handle (even though we don't believe it at the time). I'm still not completely certain as to why this has been my journey to travel, but I have learned many things along the way and expect to learn even more as I know it is not over yet. Maybe one of the lessons I needed to learn was to have more faith in myself and others.....that I am a strong person and can withstand much adversity; however, if it should get too overwhelming have the faith in others that they will be there for support. You ALL have reinforced my faith in others as well, and I truly THANK YOU for that!!! THE BIONIC BUTT CLUB RULZ!!!! BTW - I've got a tee time for Sunday as long as it doesn't rain!!!! ![]() |

![]() Wow, your walking is getting on there, and I am sure with it strength. Anyway, may that tee time go well for you and your strokes fly far and land near tee. You are a hugely important part of this faith journey. Stay the course with us, and see all of us to success! All the best this weekend, ![]() Mark56 PJ ![]() |
