Question Help!: Brachial Neuritis 3 1/2 Years Post Op

Quick background:

NTOS and had Scalenectomy in May 2012 (No rib removal and no total scalene removal)

Dx'd with Brachial Neuritis a month ago and have been in pain for about 2 to 3 months, severe pain for about 3 days about 6 weeks ago

Currently taking Lyrica and Robaxin for the pain, had a cervical esi pain block 2 weeks ago.

My surgeon isn't discussing a 2nd surgery with me and sent me to pain management. Does anyone have any advice as to where to go from here? I'd like to know if I could benefit from a 2nd surgery with scalene removal and rib resection. Pain management has talked about SCS implant if meds don't work. I plan on giving this another couple of months before making any big decisions...
