I have been a test case from the very beginning. ALL tests and procedures they would do come up with the results as "NORMAL" leading to long delays in correctional steps to "managable pain." Which is all I ever expected, was just to have it at a level in which I can mange it and not it control me. I could go on for ever, but will lmit it to this much, but feel free to contact me for any discussion you may want to have IF you feel it will help you or others out.

Have had 5 revisions, has worked and is working. Obviously after time it breaks down and needs repair and I hate that I have to go through that for the rest of my life.
