@billielynne I am so sorry for what you have experienced with the Stim wave. There are so many things that can mess up with these stimulators, and believe me, the sellers do not want you to know. I am having the DRG stimulator implanted in me in a few weeks and have not heard any horror stories yet. I only pray that things go well with me. I hope that if you have spinal fusion, it goes well. RESEARCH that, as well!!! Lori Renee

By the way, hope you are doing well and are still on track for the July 9th DRG procedure. Also hope you are doing okay considering you had a lot of relief during the trial and are now back in Painville for a while. Best, Hank
They had told me that the stimulator was the last thing they could do for me. I'm old but I think in fairly good health, but my balance is terrible. I pray with every step I take that I won't fall and break my hip. I've had 30 some operations and never had a problem, I hope my luck, blessings haven't run out.If I could get out of pain and be able to walk right without feeling that I'm going to fall down that it will be the biggest blessing that God could give me for these last yrs of my life. I'm going to be 79 in Oct, I'm an antique! You look pretty young. I hope that you do well.

Lori sorry if you already said this before but I am wondering, is there a brand name attached to your drg stimulator? There seem to be several I have heard in conjunction with these peripheral nerve stimulators, like the Nalu that @fredjan2016 is having put in as well as the two others Stimwave and Stimrouter (and maybe others?) but as far as the SCS (spinal cord stimulator) and the drg I do not remember hearing a brand name. The reason I ask is that is a good way to track down reviews or other's previous experiences with something. Hank
