Hi all,

I'm booked in to have scs on the 20th of August, its the Nevro hf device they are going to use.

However I'm on the verge of saying no and bottling it, I've had 14 bouts of knee surgery and usually surgery doesn't bother me. My last surgery was a knee replacement and I wasn't really keen on having it done, I had asked them to amputate the leg above the knee and give me a chance to fight and get back walking, but they said no, many times!
Anyway my pain levels have been very high ever since the knee replacement and I use a wheelchair, it was only when I went out but my right leg has now gone and I'm in the chair full-time.

I know this scs could be a chance to lower the pain, the pain management team have said it most likely won't get me pain free but would help me to reduce my meds.

I'm so confused, its actually upsetting me because I know this is a real opportunity but I have a gut feeling its wrong, I have been told I have CRPS and I'm unsure how further surgery would affect that.

Any views would be very very gratefully received.
