Soooo - I have learned that passing magnets, or being close to magnets should not cause "Buzz" (sounds like BuuZZ) to literaly buzz more! I have always been very sensitive to the type of stimulation that a neurostimulator sends out --- and I swear it buzzed more!
I have had intense leg pain for almost a week. I know it comes from my back - but I don't feel any back pain. This makes it hard to judge where it is coming from -- but I am fairly certain my leg is not the origination point. I have stayed with program #1, however I have to set it fairly high in order to get relief. While this helps my leg pain, it is fairly annoying to other areas! Perhaps it is time for a change of programs. I accidently came across an option on program #1 that allows me to make changes. I am headed towards program #3 today, hoping it has this same option.
Buzz (my name for my St Jude Neurostimulator) has allowed me many happy hours that I would not have had. I did a 2 day garage sale, enjoyed my family immensely, and went out several times. I even helped with breakfast on Sunday - set the table! It was nice to be in the kitchen again - even for a short time. The black cloud of pain, disappointment, and depression has lifted, and I feel life.
Report to follow!
