The only drawback I have with my spinal cord stim is that I am so afraid to turn it up to much higher because I start to get a really bad burning sensation in my fingers. So I leave it set as is and just pray that the pain subsides. I went from having it set at .80 to 1.10-1.20 in about 7 months. The other thing is that it was originally set for most pain in my hand and part of my arm. The pain has now gone up into my shoulder and started in my right hand so in time he might have to go in and redo things to try and cover for at least up to my shoulder in my left hand. I am just avoiding that possibility if I can at all help it. It does help take away most of my pain though except in my shoulder. Thank God for that or like I said I don't know how I would be able to live with all this pain.
