Did you simply have the implant? Or did you go through his 30 day program with all the extra bells and whistles?

He does offer Ketamine on an out patient basis, thought he did not volunteer this info. He said my insurance would never approve Ketamine--period. I've just been approved for a Ketamine trial by my insurance... Although I'm not sure I'd have him do it.

He is supposed to be an expert. I liked him in person. But many patients have lots of complaints. His resident warned me to not get offended by his ego (more or less) before he walked in the room.

SCS is great if all goes well--and it works well for many. It is a major gamble, though...

How many blocks did you have, btw?
