But I have a simulair problem. I had a Spinal Stimulator Inplanted Oct. 25, 2005. This Tuesday I am having it removed. I too have Neuropathy and have lost the feeling in my feet. I do have Diabetes, but had none of the problems I have now. I have had 5 back surgeries and they will add to the fusions I already have, making seven. All these are serious and I have been in a lots of pain. the stimulator didn't help me any and no cooperation with adjustments. Oh they were friendly to me until they were paid and my surgeon then said that was the only thing to be done.

As it turned out I have Spondylolisthesis. I now also have had this year a Knee operation from Ortho doc that said it was my knee. By the time October rolls around I will of had three surgeries in one year. Where does it all end? These are painful and crippling type of surgeries. I say I will never have another but pain drives me to it. I keep thinking this will be my last one for sure & so far I see no end. good Luck in finding an answer

Wish I could help you Cheyenna, but sorry I can't. I sure can understand the pain tho. Maybe follow your heart is the best answer. Dr's aren't right all the time.
God bless you,
