      Like I mentioned, my case is a one in a million chance so you should definately go through with it even if it turnsout that its not the right thing for your body. Be sure to take iy" y afterwards because after all it is "surgery". Each patient is different as far as the level of electrodes they put in, what voltage they test at, and ultimately what you are able to test at home with your device. Be patient, give each setting a good 30/60 min before you change so you can get a feel of what each is like long term. And if need be talk to your doc about changing the settings if they do not cover all of your pain areas. And Last but not least relax :) Best wishes and let me know how it goes for you!!
