Heart Welcome Marie!!!

You and I share a similar path to management of pain, to wit: the implant of a Boston Scientific Precision Plus SCS device. I am now a year plus out from my implant, and thrilled with my results to date.

My implant occurred 30 June 2010, over six years after a serious auto wreck which reduced me to a pile of flesh in constant agony. 28 surgeries later, I received the Boston Sci solution to help manage the permanent nerve injury pain with which I was left, and my report is glowing. I withdrew from all pain management meds in August and September of 2010 following a process managed by my Physiatrist, a doc whom I now count among my friends.

Your story is inspirational and a blessing to share, so thank you very much bringing your path to our knowledge, knowing as well if you have issues along the way, we are quite a family of caring concerned people here willing and ready to reply.

May all go well and be well with your pain management, your follow on physical therapy [anyway I had much of that], and the task of withdrawal. It will not be easy, and meds for withdrawal will be prescribed to aid you in attaining your goal.

Blessings on you Marie!
