@jesfactsmon Awww, God Bless you, Hank! I think I lost track of time. I did not want to be obnoxious constantly posting! Yes, the DRG is absolutely improving my pain level. I have gone without pain meds till the evening, which is a miracle for me! Pain at night can still be pretty bad, and my feet are by no means, normal feeling. My feet get utterly exhausted from nothing, as if I ran a marathon. Toes contort, out of the blue. Have to start all my foot exercises again, as Neuropathy progresses, even though pain is better. My muscles are not normal from the neuropathy, hence the weak feet. Also so weak from surgery still. Just walked twice around my block where I live, and it was glorious. Loved every bit, though exhausted. I do hope that this machine works even better with time. I see my Pain Doc and one of the ABBOTT reps at the beginning of September. I don't know if they will adjust the machine again, but after I adjusted to less electricity twice, I think it may be just right. So, yes!!!! Much less pain!!! A miracle!!! Now for foot strengthening! One crazy thing; shoes remain a problem. To find a shoe that doesn't kill me is very hard. Time will tell! This whole thing is not for sissies. But I either did it, or probably would have ended my life. Not kidding, either. Could no longer bare it, at all. I can't say how kind you are. God in heaven, just the kindest soul. Tell Linda everything. I did talk to my ABBOTT rep about Linda and her technology phobia. They said they would definitely help her out ahead of time!!! At least my group would, but you would find that out where you are. It is simple, but fear can stop us from many things!!!! Love to you always, Lori
