I have had my SCS since May of last year. While I would proabaly do it again it has caused alot of problems. My RSD has spread. I had to have a third surgery to repair the leads because my dog jerked me so hard he tore the leads out of the generator. By the way no one had ever seen that before. It really helps me but it did not give me the pain relief I so deperately wanted & had heard about. The only good thing about an SCS is there is a trial surgery so you can try it for your self before its permanetly implanted. You cant decide this by others opinions or results. That is why the trial is so important. Because if it doesnt work well for you your not stuck with it.
Hope you get the answers you are looking for
