Thank you Mark and Jackiey!!
I have RSD full body but my doc is mainly concerned with having the SCS to "treat" my lower body. My pain is a constant 9+... often a 10. I've been on numerous pain medicines.... many did nothing... right now I'm on Dilaudid... it seems to be working but I have to take it so often to get any relief.
I don't know what to expect from an SCS... I don't know if it will take my pain away??? OR will it just lower my pain???
I've had tens units and tried the Dynatron STS which both caused my pain to increase and spread!!!!!! And those were electric stimulation on the outside of my body... So I am scared beyond words to have electric stimulation on the inside of my body?!?!?!?!
