my RSD is in my right arm both shoulders and across my upper back. I dont feel them in my neck, but the cord along my side connecting it to the battery is where i feel it pulling. kinda weird. I had a block awhile ago, and he took an xray and said that the leads are scarred in in the right places so im not worried about that. But sometimes when i bend down to tie my shoe, i feel the battery and side cord pulling.

I did get relief from the beginning. But then about 6 months after I had it put in, I was cooking an artichoke in a pot of boiling water and took it out with tongs, well we can see how that story ended!!! my Rsd then spread across my back which is why we did the ketamine to stop it. My stim is now off, but I went on a trip up to oregon and it was in the 30's and it starting acting up again and i think i have to turn it on again. sigh. I live in OC or Los Angeles, and we always have sunny weather and the cold weather KILLLED!!!

But ever since i have lost the weight im 5-10 and about 150 so im relatively small for my height, but ive noticed that I have been noticing it more since i lost weight. How is your SCS working for you?
