Default How many programs?

How many programs must I have to have before I have some that work? I am trying to set up number six ugh. 50 mile drive. (one way) sooooo we shall see. I go from 12 usable programs to 3 in two weeks. I am going to being up yalls suggestion about self programming cause I think that would be great! Also, do any of you have stabbing back pain that burns and throbs at surgery site this far (9 weeks today) after procedure? Trying to determine the cause. It hurts like crazy, though. In the meantime, I have ewe drs. Arguing over whether my foot is broken or not so the last few days have been quite fun lol. Hope everyone else is well. Any input on the serious back pain would be appreciated. Really worrying me. Had burning before surf and terrified of the awful spread word!!! Anyway, have a great night, everyone!!

Heart Dear TK

Nine weeks after surgery I had no searing or stabbing pain in the surgical implant incisions. Discomfort which was waning? Yes. By then I was also withdrawing from the pain meds I had known for so many years, so it was the downhill side of the surgical picture at that time.

So many programs!!!! You dear Lady, how can it be so? Now you are left with three maybe programs and a long drive coming up? As my grandmother would say "well for pity sakes!!" I pray your tech rep will help you with alternate programs to fit the bill. From the beginning I have had four programs, the four I set up on the first day my unit was brought up to "Power On." Those four programs are all I have had now for more than two years and I am just fine by them. So, IF tech will let you take the controls, I also pray you will enjoy the success I have known to this day.

Prayin for ya, OK?
