Smile Hi Sandra

Yup, it comes to mind Tchr_012 had percutaneous leads originally and went to paddles, achieving so much better coverage.

As for me, I am a paddler.... not by trade, but by implant. I have paddles inserted at T9 and the coverage is fantastic from that location for lower lumbar and legs in my situation. A nuance to my situation was being able to program myself, and the benefit of just such an interface with the computer made all things come together for the good. I have been so thrilled, even to have fully withdrawn from all meds for the low body pain..... all of them.

I will happily answer any questions you have regarding this as your situation develops.

Thank you for coming along!
