The rep called again today, since i go back tommarrow & told me that since the trial is going so well he is going to talk to the pain dr & surgeon & get me in as soon as possible. I actually was hoping for a few weeks at least to come to terms with the permanant implant.

Quick question tho: I go back tomarrow morning for the wires to be removed. Does that hurt or is it just creepy? thanks,

Jan, please please be prepared for a possible major flair of your pain once your trial is removed. This is a "normal" thing. However many of us have been unprepared for this, do not be afraid to take your meds and be sure to let your doc know if you need more.
