Today Will and I were at the hospital all afternoon, me getting a trial spinal cord stimulator. It's like having a tins unit inside my body, vibrating from hip to feet. I'm very hopeful.
The anesthesiologist was my age or older, a character.
My pain management doctor did the procedure--I like her very much!
In one week, it will be un-installed and we'll decide whether the level of effectiveness warrants a permanent one. The temporary one is a block attached to my back with leads going into my spine. The permanent one is all inside, sort of like a pace maker.
