That's what an scs does. It makes it better. Doesn't fix it. Lets you feel more normal. More stamina. For me it's given me road biking. Road biking = hope and a chance to go do something physical with friends. I'm actually getting fast (cause it's all i do !!). Even though the energy is surging up legs, that respite from feeling pain related disability is priceless. To have one thing for me i really enjoy - priceless. If only work were so easy!! My best to you all.
