Update on my Surgery


I had the leads put in on Monday Sep 29 2008 for the trial of the Nero stimulator. You are saying what is that ? Well it is a like a pacemaker and a tens unit they inserted 2 leads into my spine they have little contacts on them that can be programed to send shock waves to my brain to block the pain from going up to my brain it feels like a tingly feeling and so far it is good I am sore from where they put the leads in but getting better and I have them taken out on Thur Oct 2 2008 . If it works for me and I can stand the feeling then I will go to a surgeon and they will cut open my spine and put them in permanently and they will put a small device under my skin that the lead run to that I can control the different shock waves. So far I am doing good I would rather feel the tingle than the pain. I want to thank my Great family for all they do for me when I am down and for all the love I just do not think I could make it without them coming to visit and bringing me the beautiful flowers that make my day every time I see them it just reminds me of how much I am loved. And thank's to all who called or emailed to see how I was doing I do have some great friend's. Ok enough of the mushy stuff. I can't wait to go to the Desert star play tonight and to just get out of the house. That is all for now time to go rest.
