Well, yesterday most of the day was waiting but it finally happened. I had my surgery. I had a little anasthetic to keep me comfy but was awake while they threaded the wires from my skull to my hip. Then they put me under and implanted the stimulator in my hip. It is a constant tingling in my head, (I can turn it off if I want), but for the most I will leave it on. I was told that I will not notice a difference right away, that where the insisions are will be sore. Boy am I sore, even hurt a lot. I do feel a little better today than last night but I am resting for a couple of days before I go back to work Thursday and Friday this week. I am not to move my head a lot or bend from my waist till the wires get stable. They are just inside of my skin and need scar tissue to ground them. Also the bandages are keeping me from moving freely. BUT I AM ALIVE AND KICKING!!!
Thank you for all your prayers that everything goes well. It is yet to be decided if this all will help. Better go lay down for a while. Love and
