I have a question about nerostimulator
Hi I had a back fusion surgery about 9 weeks ago and and was diagnoised with complex regional pain syndrome due to the surgery.The pain runs down my leg and into my foot.I have had 8 nerve block shots and now the Dr is recommending me to get a nerostimulator.Has anyone had a back fusion surgery that led to Complex regional pain syndrome?If so did your Dr recommed the nerostimulator?My back surgon thinks I should wait it out before getting the stimulator and my pain mang Dr thinks I should have it done now.I dont want to jump the gun and just get it done but I also dont want to live with this pain.
Im currently taking Lyrca and Cybalta ,plus pain meds which include morphine patches.I have had a MRI and a cat scan that came up negative for any other problem than the complex reg pain.If anyone can answer these questions I would appreciate it.
Thanks,Val
