I thought the constant tingling would drive me crazy when I first began the trial...then I realized it felt good. I had both cervical and thoracic St Jude stimulators implanted in June 2011 and the stim doesn't bother me one bit. It is such a great comfort. There are different settings and frequencies that I didn't feel as comfortable with, it takes some programming and playing with them to get that good, ahhhh feeling

I am so happy that I got both of mine!!

I've had my Bos Sci stim coming up on 1 year in Aug. For abdominal pain. At first the stim around my ribs drove me crazy. But, with a few adjustments and different settings for sleep and day time use I barely notice it except for when I have break through pain and need to turn it up very high until the pain subsides. I still have trouble when I need to turn it up for night pain. The stim in stomach and rib area sometimes feels like a vice around my ribs. When pulse is lowered it is very soothing and relaxing.

I think at first it can be somewhat annoying, but as the leads start to scar in and you also are getting more used to it, that annoying aspect goes away, so eventually you'll forget it's even on!

We don't allow crazy 'ceptin only at parties at Pooh's Ranch. Then we let our hair down. Now for some GUYS that is hard, since there is little to no hair to let down.... but we do it anyway.

Prayin you will be fine,
