I just posted about this on the other thread here. I know a few people who have done the scs and researched since I was suggested it. I think one has to be very careful when doing this. Yes it can help but it can also hurt. Some people have pain in the area of placement,leads move,etc. My pain doctor was actually fearful it would make my area of RSD and neuropathy worse pain. I do know someone though who it gave her back her life. So frustrating cause what works for one person does not for another and a lot of procedures/treatments it is taking a chance.
