Talked with my hunny at length last night (I couldn't sleep again) We decided it was time to do another nerve ablation, My SCS does not hit one nerve path, we have tried many times in the past to get coverage with no success, so as some of you know I went with the ablation... I had taken a stand that if I had to do the "diagnostic testing" again. That in a nut shell is to **** off the nerve to be sure you are "really" having pain before insurance will pay for it . So today when I was charging my lifesaver, it popped up a new message ERI, that basically means my battery will soon croak

Pooh,

Appears you will soon be replacing a battery. Curious about nerve ablation. Was your previous ablation a substantial lessening of pain? Hope all of this is sufficient since you are using only OTC medication. Really feel for you working with all this chronic pain. :
