Well, as promised I am here to report on the success of my spinal cord stimulator trial yesterday. One day after my procedure I don't really feel any different. The doc could not get both paddles placed along my spinal cord due to scar tissue from a previous sugery. So, only one paddle. The rep tried to give as much coverage with one paddle but it was not very successful. Same old pain today for the most part, even with my morning meds. We will try some other programs, but I am not holding out much hope at this point in time. Not sure what other options I have at this point in time. Oh, well. I guess this is my lot. Blessings to all of you out there with chronic pain.

Day two of spinal cord stimulator trial. No pain relief. Have tried both programs, with parasthesia and one without. I clicked up the stimulation, but I could really feel it when I laid down on my bed. Rep is supposed to call this am to speak about something. I think this trial is a bust. I don't see any other options right now.
