Hi JoJo, have you any idea which brand of SCS implant you are looking at? This info would enable the right people to respond. I have the Nevro Senza implant and it has help a lot, but success varies it seems from person to person and the area being treated. Mine is for neck and head issues and is predominantly aimed at C2. I have managed to do away with the opiate patches I was using, but at this stage am still on other meds that I hope one day to stop taking too.
They told me from the start that a 50% reduction in pain levels was considered a success, and anything more was a bonus. Most days I have a 70 to 75% reduction but some days (like the last few days) you wonder if it is working at all. All I can suggest is that you keep doing your research and if you can supply a little more info someone here might be able to help.
Regards,
Phil
