Thumbs up SCS TRIAL WORKING Thanks for your prayers....

Hi ALL,
Oh my Gosh I feel wonderful! Sore in my back where they put the trial stimulator but, Praise the Lord (I mean this) my leg pain, foot and toe pain hip pain too is gone!! I am so amazed! Went to the Dr. for a follow up today from the surgery on Monday (2-26) he said things look great the dressing on my back looks great!
On Tuesday March 6 I am having the battery implanted in my belly on the left side.
The Lord answered so many prayers for us the Dr. only had to use one lead wire thought he was going to have to use two. He told us today that he got right in the middle and he is so pleased it is controling both legs clear to the toes and also the lower back!
The Dr. told me today the I will be hurting (surgical pain) in my back and belly from the battery implants on Tuesday. That too will pass! I asked when I could get weaned off of the pain meds and he said let's wait until after the final surgery because you will need to stay on pain meds because of the final surgery. I just can't say enough on how great it is to be out of leg, hip,toe and heel pain and low back pain also! Thanks all for praying please keep me in prayer on Tuesday (3-6) as I have the final part of the SCS surgery! Dr. said I will be pretty sore for a few days after surgery but, I know that will pass! Thanks all!
Love you guys
Kelly (Pooh lady)

Re: SCS TRIAL WORKING Thanks for your prayers....

Is SCS then same as the nerve stimulator that is implanted next to your spine?

Re: SCS TRIAL WORKING Thanks for your prayers....


Pooh Lady , Thats is great new's for you and me .
Please let me ask now that it has helped you...Mostly important ,did it hurt putting it in ? I told my PM Dr. I wanted the paddle leads but he said they have to be surgically implanted by a specialist..I heard they cover more area?

What implant is it ? I know there's 2 different names of med untins and ans ?? Please tell me everthing they did to you..From the begging , shot to relax ? what ?? Sorry I'm so impatient.

I'm glad it's working Praise the Lord is right Pooh ,

No more pain..I'm weening from my meds now ,maybe I should have waited ????
