The Trial Run

Today was disconcerting. The spinal cord stimulater did not seem to be working as expected. When I would increase the stimulation to where my back was getting some good stimulation, my legs would do a Saint Vitas dance which eventually became painful and I would have to turn it off. To shorten along story, I finally called Andy at Boston Scientific and explained my problem. He offered to meet me on the fly as it were as he was going from one place to another, to check it out. He was wonderful, he reprogramed my unit and restored my hope that this would help me have some real progress in dealing with my back pain. We shall see what we shall see.
