Give some serious thought to the pain pump. I just had the inhospital trail and it took my pain from a 8-9 down to maybe a 2, It was hard to tell, because I was sick from the morphine before they changed it and put me on duiluid. It was great. The trial hurt so much less then the trial for the scs. I get the perm pump implanted Jan 19th. recovery from the surgery is a pain, but afterwards, you can drive, ride horses, in short, get a lot of your life back. One thing tho, the pump is only as good as your dr. If you have any questions, just pm me.
