My gosh ! How does that happen ? Yes I would be upset too wonder when that happened right after or lately? I actually haven’t talk to the doctor that’s going to do my back it’s always he’s PA that I see but my next app is first if September when I’m suppose to get it done. I will tell him what happened to you if I have a chance but I take 2 Valium before I go in that morning so I don’t know if I’ll be able to talk much but I go back a week later and I still won’t see him even then . Last time I was in there tho I did mention that you were still in pain with your foot numb and that he only put one implant in you she said “ I wonder why just one ? “ that’s all she said but she told me about a man that got 2 put in but he needed 4 but Medicare will only allow 2 so he was so happy with it he came back and got the other 2 more and paid cash for them ... let me know what he says Thursday I’m so sorry that has happened to you I pray it doesn’t to me
Sorry to hear about implant slipping. I have been going to my pain and management doctor for the past two months now, I had two series of the facet shots and that didn't work for me so now my doctor suggested the vertiflex procedure. I was looking at how it's worked for people.
@esperanza22 I am so sorry that your implant slipped. Horrid. I hope it can be put back where it belongs without too much difficulty? I know nothing about your particular implant, but just had a DRG stimulator implanted in me, and it is not working very well at all. However, I have been told that it take at least 2-3 months to get it right. Who knows. Anyway, I am so sorry for what you are going through, and kind of know how it feels.......Lori Renee
