I hope someone with SFN and an implanted Spinal Cord Stimulator will come along and express their experiences. I will subscribe to this thread to keep informed of any responses.

Wishing you better days. Hoping people with your type of neuropathy will respond quickly and give you some insight on what treatments help and which ones do not, other than just oral medications.

I would also like to throw out a question of my own to the NT community concerning SCS implants. Do they work on the same principle and/or in the same manner as a TENS unit?

If not, what are the primary differences other than the SCS being implanted and the TENS unit being external?

Thanks to anyone responding to St. George.
