Hi Desi,
I am sorry for your pain. You asked for honest opinions of the SCS so here goes. I had my SCS done in 2003. It wasn't done in the office. It is surgery and it should be done in an OR not a Drs office. It was ok for awile, it did feel strange, the tingiling up and down my legs. I was able to go off all my pain meds. But that didn't last long. The pain returned and not only did I have to go back on my meds. (oxycodone) the meds didn't work as well. They added methadone. I was all drugged up. Then I fell on some ice and one of the leads slipped out and was sitting on a nerve. The pain from the lead was worse than the RSD. I put up with it for a couple of years but it took my breath away. This past December I had it taken out. (it had been shut off for 2 yrs) Its the best thing I ever had done. Make sure you get alot of opinions from other Docs. before you have it done. I hope I didn't scare you.

Love Sue K.
