Yeah I had a great trial and I did not have my regular rep for the initial program. She didn't give me many cause of swelling, etc. anyway, I'm not happy and will show it tomorrow lol

Heart TK...

Hopefully tomorrow your re-programming session will prove to allieviate this horrid zapping. I'm sorry you are dealing with this.
Don't let the session end until you feel confident in how the programming went. They get paid well to sit there with you until it gets done right.

Hope all goes well!

Sorry, had to chuckle, but that's exactly what happened to me with my first leads. Turn it up enough to provide relief, and I walked like someone out of Michael Jackson's THRILLER video.

Might need to turn it down lower and just use for extra relief with pain killers ... I said, after having the paddle lead, thatits like someone massaging my temples when I have a horrendous headache ... Doesn't cure it, but it certainly feels good.
