....but it was all for nada...
today is the first day of my spinal cord stimulator trial. Hurt, badly, walking into the place. Had meeting with the Medtronic rep, several of the pain clinics staff and headed to the back. Was done in under 30 minutes. Doc said it took a bit longer due to the fact that I agreed to be part of a trial for another company. This second companies protocol requires that the leads be sutured into place so he had to make a small incision and put a titch or two over the cut.
For what this is worth...the only pain I am in right now is from where the doc was digging around in my back. Can't feel any of my normal pain...hmmm......
