Hi Lori, I just posted a sort of melancholy dirge over on the other discussion just now, and then I read this post of yours and remembered how much hope I feel for you and your drg implant. I am so hopeful for you and for a positive outcome. I am glad you are experiencing some subtle changes today (or yesterday I guess now). You are a sweetheart and deserve some relief! Hang it there kiddo, and we will keep our ears perked for any words from you of success for this thing. Best, Hank

@jesfactsmon @jimhd and of course, to all MY NEUROPATHY FRIENDS!!!! Once again, thanks for your kind words. Just want to report a bit of a change in the feet today. Yesterday, my ABBOTT guardian angel lowered the electricity to my toes, and it is definitely an improvement. I still think it will need to be lowered more, but I do think my ABBOTT lady did the right thing. Senses are such strange things!!!! I almost feel like there is an "under current" of pain, just below the surface of my senses and my feet! So hard to describe. But an improvement in pain level, for sure! The ABBOTT lady says it's a very inexact Science, and they keep adjusting more and less electricity till they get it right. One thing I have learned, is that having the right ABBOTT rep is quite important. The young lady that helps me is so calm and encouraging. She just stays with me on the phone and her ability to visualize where I am on my Ipad for my feet astounds me. She does not have the ipad in front of herself, but just guides me. She is never distracted for a second. Very talented lady. So yes, I do see improvement today. I hope it gets better because this sense of undercurrent is unpleasant, and the pain is lowered, but not low enough. However, much better than yesterday. Hope this report helps you guys!!! Love to you all. Lori Renee
