Hello, My name is Albert
I had my neck broken and some damage to my spinal cord. Im fused at C1 to C3, C4 to C6 and C7 to T1. Then they opened up a space in my neck to free up a nerve that was being crushed. The Nerve had been crushed for over a year. I'm having server pain in my neck and down my right arm and hand, no feeling in the right hand at the ring and pinky fingers, you can poke it with a needle and I cant feel it. Will the Nerve come back? My Doctor recommend that I get a Cervical Stimulaor install. Does this device work? He stated that they would place wires into your neck and send shock waves into the spinal cord at the neck area. If it works he said that they would install the stimulator permently. Has anyone had this device implanted and does it help with pain?. What are the side effect if any? Please Help!!!
