Has anyone tried the HF10 Spinal Cord Stimulation Device?

I have the Medtronic device, and had a test installation for 10 days to check if it works. Once i had my final device installed, I worked with the Medtronic rep for a few week to find the best adjustment. The rep called me every other day, to see how I goes. They finally developed 3 different settings, that I can switch between, depending how my pain level is.

I have not needed any pain medication for about 2 years now, I just adjust my unit to meet the pain requirements.

Wow! I also have a Medtronic device but haven't been able to find a setting to control my lumbar back pain. It's been three weeks since my implant. I am so very frustrated! I have to charge the implant every day, which seems unusual. The pain is so acute I can't stand or walk straight up and have to bend forward. Is this a "normal" post-implant story?

To lindes. This is the story every one of us should have. Your picture is the right one, what is wrong with our pictures ? ?

I am happy to hear that Medtronic works for you. Do you have to charge it everyday?
