I will say before my revision I was charging my thoracic two to three times a week. I just had it cranked super high to feel relief. Sems like the battery might have a problem, though. I had a battery surgery. It was pretty easy compared to all the other surgeries I've had.
I agree that they work so great in bringing pain down. My scs usually cover my arm and leg pain. Unfortunately, my rsd is systemic.  I'm just glad that some pain is covered which is better than none. I hope your battery issue resolves itself soon!
My daughter's name is Tess, so I love your name!!

Thanks TK! I have been working with my reps on the battery issue and it does seem that my battery IPG is depleting way to quickly. The question that remains is whether or not it is because I use it at a higher amplitude & hertz or because it is malfunctioning either way it is annoying and if I need to increase settings any further this will become even more problematic. Hopefully soon they will figure things out!
Sorry to hear your RSD is systemic but, glad to know that the SCS is also working for you.
Your daughter must be amazing.. lol..
Praying for all who suffer!
