Thanks for popping in, ZDog.  
 
I remember you were running it for an hour a day and that plus the verapamil was keeping you attack free.  You were going to wean off the verap, but hadn't started yet.
 
How often and for how long are you turning on the stimulator now?
 
Are you still on the verapamil or have you tapered off of it now?
 
Please continue keep us posted on your progress.

Glad to hear you're doing good Zdog. Hope it last forever.
 
Still wish I could've got a better response from your doc. I was really interested, but I'm happy with my current treatment. Although my results are not as good as yours, it's the best thing I've tried so far.
 
If it works, it's priceless !!
 
PF Wishes
