my burning in my legs came back with a bang but its more a hot itchy legs then the burning pain of before. now today i took an anti histimanine tablet and everything settled down and went back to blissful pain relief can you be allergic to your device ? or is this just a coincidence?? little confused and dont want to call rep and sound like a hypo chondriac either so though i would pass it by my very smart scs buddies?

Are you taking any new medications, or maybe a pain medication. Sounds more like an allerigic reaction. If it was your unit you should start seeing pain at the site of your generator or your leads, not in your legs. Also did you develope any hives or raised patches that itched worse then the other areas. One time I did not believe I was allergic to a penicillin, but noted increased "bites" within an hour of taking my pill, took several doses and the breakout of hives for me to decide yes indeedy I was allergic to the medication (you would think a nurse would pick up on that sooner
)
Let us know how u are doin
