I have had and SCS with GREAT results. I, unfortunately, am prone to infections and had to have mine removed 2 weeks later.

What I would suggest to you is before you have anything done, is research your Dr.. This is your body, it is ok to ask him questions about the unit, how many times he has put one in and the neuro he will be working with!

Good luck and God Bless!
Gentle hugs
Thanks so much for responding. I am really struggling with the emotional side of this. I was very active before this all started happening and its hard to find joy in life anymore when you are in constant pain
