I remember my trial. It was wonderful to feel nearly pain free! I had forgotten how that felt. But then I had to wait for a couple of months to be scheduled for the implant. With my stimulator, I had to wait for 6 weeks, giving the surgery site time to heal. The scar tissue would have been in the way of the nerves sending their signals. But after those 6 weeks, I felt 80% pain relief. It's hard to describe to someone who hasn't experienced chronic, intractable pain. Enjoy!
