I just woke up from anesthesia to be told they couldn’t do my surgery because they didn’t catch my nickel allergy until literally right before they were about to cut me open and put it in. Apparently the electrodes have nickel in them, and while they are concealed by some sort of cover and wouldn’t bother me while wearing it, if I fell or was in an accident and they broke off in my spine, I’d have to have major surgery to remove them ASAP.

Here is my previous post about my trial - it was quite successful and I was very much looking forward to having the permanent implant put in today:

I am beyond devastated.
