You're doin a great job of finding your way around this wonderful forum!
I saw your posts on the game threads.... So much fun to be had here.
I can spend hours here without realizing the time flying by.....things that take my mind off pain.....
Speaking of which, I visited your profile page and saw you mention that wonderful 'friend' of ours (NOT) Neuropathy ! Such a drag.

I think you know where the Peripheral Neuropathy forum is at here....I'll post the link for you if you don't find it in the main menu. It's a very active forum here and it is LOADED with valuable info on how to combat that type of pain, supplements that help, causes, resources and most importantly (to me anyway ) a wonderful group of folks with a good sense of humor!

Anyway, back on topic >> SCS ! The downside of what you mention is pretty much same here......do you have a high incidence of RSD (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy)? Here, it seems to post a high risk of RSD spreading when getting the implant.

I pray for improved awareness of RSD in the medical arena.

So glad you've joined up here!
The support here is absolutely wonderful.....

As Always
