    Hi Bonnie.  I am sorry that you are going through the pain you have.  I on 3//17 had the BURST implanted.  I did the NEVRO trial and go no results.  Maybe with the pain a nerve might have gotten inflammed and it might take a little longer to get the relief you see.  Have you seen a pain management Dr. as a side to the surgeon.  They might be able to shed some light on your problem.  It does take time to heal.  The swelling around the two incision sites might be a factor in your pain.  Hang in there.  There maybe someone else on here that might have a better answer.  Just take it easy no heavy lifting, bending stretching or driving a car.  I just started driving the other day.  Short trips.  But when I get home I am exhausted.

    Good luck.  Keep us posted DEE

    Hey Bonnie, I am actually a retired PM doc, who has her very own St. Jude SCS.  Did the leg swelling happen on the day of the surgery? Did it happen on the leg where they implanted the generator?

    Hi Bonnie.  I had my stim.  put in 3/2.  I have pain in my right butt area going down my right leg.  This pain increases if I stand for more than 10 mins. or do walking.  Right now I have curtailed my shopping.  I hope this pain is because we have not found the right setting.  Hoping you find the problem and get relief.
