Hi Yellow,

You're very welcome to our corner of cyberspace and yes this is definitely the place to be.
I had my first surgery when I was a week gone 21, I had a L4-5 discectomy and once I got over it I was fantastic for about 11 years or so and during that time I was so active, I loved it, anyhow since then my problems started again about 4 and half years ago, I had my Medtronic SCS in last December, unfortunately it hasn't been a success and my Dr wants to put in a SCS called Nevro you can only get it in Ireland & the UK at the moment but it's supposed to be good! By all accounts the Boston Scienctific is supposed to be good too, I don't know why it can't be got in Ireland and the UK as these guys have offices here too.

Best of luck, do keep in touch and key us know how you're getting on.
