My mother (65 y.o.) is going in to have this done on February 8th. Any advice you could give to the both of us? What was the recovery time like for you? She's somewhat nervous about the fact that she has to be off her meds and awake for the surgery. Was it as nerve-wracking as she thinks it's going to be?

Thank you! She is just having the right side done on this first visit. They'll be putting the unit in her chest later. She may have to go back and have the left side done as well depending on how much the first one helps. I read the blog you posted here and I'm going to have her read it. I think reading someone else's experience will help her a lot. Thank you for posting this and good luck on your recovery!
