after just taking hydro 10 mg my doc wants to install simulator in me!
 I have went to my pm doc and after about a year, we tried neurontin, couldn' take that and work, cymbalta hair fell out and high blood pressure spike, so I had to come off that. The only other thing I am taking is hydro 10 mg and she just now gave me tizanidine just about a week ago. and I have had at least 8 epidurals. But she says she has no other options for me but to go ahead and implant the scs. I would hope their are other docs who could come up with a better plan than that. or series of meds for me to take. I have had 9 surgeries in a short time in my life and I sure don;t want something inplanted permanently in me if I don;t have too. Advise me also Peeps!! Please !!! Should I or shouldn't I/// Which of course requires going to a psychologist and an consult for a scs implant which is another bill or doc.. can't afford all this.
