@sprinrosa64 Hi. My leads are at my lower back (lumbar spine). They hang around the DRG nerves located there. My battery is on my left side, right above my waist. Make sure they place your battery very carefully at a place you can't feel it when you sit back on a chair, or lay down. My best to you, and I hope I did not upset you too much. This is difficult stuff. LoriRenee1

Lori and @sprinrosa64, who are the people that surgically implant these devices in your body? Are they MD's? Or some kind of technicians? I would think that person should have to have had years of anatomy and physiology and a great deal of Neurology studies to know and understand the location of nerves and other body parts and the variations they're often are in each person's body. This whole thing got me wondering because ever since I have read about people on the blog who use these, it seems you guys all have the same stories. They work at first but maybe after 3 months not so much and can cause their own set of problems. I could have overlooked a success story or two but mostly I recall problems. This will be interesting to see what the answer is. I wish the very best for all of you, Sunny flower
