My Neuropathy on the other hand has gotten much worse.....so painful! So my Pain Management dr. recommended the Spinal Cord Stimulator surgery....the surgery is a rough one but the stimulators work. I'll be glad when the 3 incisions get healed up! (if you've ever had a therapist use a TENS unit on you because of a pulled muscle etc...that's what the stimulator feels like....only it's inside the body)
Take care....It's great hearing from you! Roxie  |
I was glad to hear about the Spinal Cord Stimulators and how well they work. I hope and pray that your neck will soon heal, where the "paddle" was inserted. I used to have a TENS Unit and it was wonderful. You had to be sure the pads were placed right and adhered tightly, but once that was done, it felt like a hundred little "fingers" massaging the place where the pain had been. Here's hoping for your speedy recovery from the pain of the surgical site and that you can be pain free subsequently. Caring for You - billie
