I am new to this site for posting but I have been viewing this site for a while.
I am so happy to see such an active site. Thank you all for sharing I have gained a lot of information and comfort from you postings!!!!!!
I have a SCS and can tell you of my own journey with it. Your first question was regarding spreding. I have had spred since the SCS. I was told that it could possibly stop or slow the spreding but is not a deffinate.
As far as recovery time it was much longer that I was led to believe. It was 5-6 weeks before I was aloud to start returning to unrestricted activities.
No driving, no lifting, no bending, etc...
I have some relief from the permanent stimulator (ANS rechargable), I feel I had more relief when I had the trial stim. I have had my pain meds increased since having the permanent stim. but keep in mind everyone is different.
I am inpressed by your vigor in standing up for your self!!!
I hope this is helpful.
