> two years ago, I fell backwards in my home and messed up my lower back. for about six months, I was in a little pain, so though it was healing.  well the sumer of 2018, i started having extreme pain in my left hip and physical therapy for over a year.  So going round and round with insurance and doctors, I am finally getting the electro nerve stimulator.  I went through the trial period, and it worked great.  so this coming Wednesday I am having the permanent implant done.  I have been missing activities that I enjoy.    I have been able to crochet some, but it’s very uncomfortable sitting for any period of time.  I’m sure there are complications and advantages of this product, but my hip is getting worse. the doctor thinks my back injury is radiating to my hip.  Pleas keep me in your thoughts.
