Well, I got wired up Tuesday

Just a quick note to maybe ask for some positive thoughts. Last year I tried a spinal cord stimulator trial.

http://www.spine-health.com/treatmen...n-chronic-pain

http://www.spine-health.com/video/sp...-implant-video

Ended up getting Meningitis and being in the hospital for six days - not good. Well, we're trying it again, and so far so good. The implant was difficult, took about twice as long as normal, but it is working well so far. Still pretty sore from the insertion site, but that is "normal". They basically insert two leads in along your spine that run to a tiny computer and battery pack. At this point since it is a trial, the computer and battery are external. When I do the final implant, they will be surgically implanted in the backside - yay me. I have been playing with my remote and getting ussed to the feeling of the stimulation which distracts the pain feeling. Boy, this thing is super sensitive and I just had a sneezing attack that kind of hurt a lot LOL. It stays in for a week, so I still have a few days to go...

Thanks for reading!

Greg
