I dunno.....mainly i guess it has more to do with how the docs seem to end up treating the pts. once they get their paycheck for the SCS. I've heard it from other sources that they (pain docs) like to push these SCS's so that they can 'wash their' hands of us and turn us over to the 'Reps'. My nearest rep is 3 hrs away.
The doc who does my SCS is real good at what he does. But i also think he's a bit 'over-confident' and he isn't very good at sitting down with his pts. and really explaining on a level that we can understand and grasp on to. It just leaves us with all these loose ends.
I'm not stressin too much about it, but like Bobber, just want to hear from as many as possible because this is where the true heart and soul is. The medical professionals certainly are too busy (or whatever) to talk on this level.
