yes my medtronic works for some of the leg pain it doesnt cover any back pain which they told me it would not cover, i still use poiates to get thru and have actually increased since my implant , but io would not give back my SCS , i have just recently started having mod tosever pain at lead implantain site, dr has many reasons why but hasnt done anything about it . i have ot have it adjust so far 6 times since it was put in.
some people say it gave them thier life back , me it just , helps me get by which i am gratful for i have pretty much finally given up on getting better.
so that adjustment is hard to actually say i am disabled to an extend , hoping i can get ss disabilty as i really need the money to survie , i had to quit a high paying job which has taken alkl our savings and 401 retirment is now gone.
