Hi again, Marty, My best to you with your DRG trial. Please do get enough data to make a rational decision. Like I told you, I really did not get enough positive results during the trial, but did it anyway. The days I did get results that were good were a blessing. I remember waiting to talk to my pain doctor and being able to keep my feet on the ground. Previously, I needed my feet elevated all the time to not be in agony. I think this was most striking in wanting to go ahead and get the permanent one. My doctor told me to just leave the machine inside of me, and not have a surgical risk. I think it is awesome that you have found people who have had good results. This is encouraging. I think it is so important to find real people, with real results. Anyway, I hope you do very well. Lori

Thank you Lori. My lower back besides my right foot are very sore. I had an RFA for the lower back three weeks ago. It didn't help. I'm going to meet with the doctor's APN-BC on Thursday. She will want to know the result of the RFA. I'm going to ask her when I have the DRG done if he the doctor, could target the right foot (toes) and the lower back in the same procedure.
