I haven't because I'm leery about it. I have had a complication from literally every surgery I've had, and I've had probably around 10. If it's the last resort and meds stop working I will do the trial and decide.

That said many people do really well with it. Have you done the trial to see if it helps you? They have some now that you can still get a MRI with so I would definitely ask about that. I believe it's the new medtronic one that allows it. They say 82% of patients who get a SCS will need a MRI w/in 5 years. As you can see I've done my research so I'm prepared when or if the time comes.

Good luck with your decision and I hope whatever you decide works well for you!! Please keep us posted!!
