Hi all...it's me Teresa.
I'm sorry I don't come around very often I have really been down for the
count.
I saw a Dr last week and IF I pass one "nut job" appt I have to have then,
I am going to start testing medtronics for a pain pump.
I guess I am not a candidate for the one that Top has.
They are talking, the one that puts pain med into your spine,
and then you go and have it refilled every month.
Anyone familiar with this little baby?
The Dr made it sound GREAT.
And I have to say that my meds no long last and by 2 2:30 pm I am in pain
for the rest
of the day.
I am more than ready to try this.
I am tired of crying....yes crying all day.
Any one with good experience.
*fingers crossed for some YES'*
Feel free to email me always

Hi Sweetie,
I really hope that this is something that will give you the best
relief. One thing that I hope someone has pointed out is once you have
it implanted there is no going back, there is going to be more scar
tissue to deal with. With that said if this gives you relief I will be
very happy for you.
