Awww, I'm so sorry you are having these problems. the good news is that you don't have RA or something else. I've missed you being around.
As you know, I have the scs. I am off almost all my meds for pain. I'm off the perc, and have been for a couple of months. I am on MS Contin, but that is because the battery site is painful. I think it is going to be moved a little so it isn't too close to where I sit. The scs doesn't stop all pain, but for me it is about 90 percent. It is really great, and I don't regret having it.
I hope you are feeling better and come out from the covers
Love
Mary
