Hi Hurtstosit.....

Welcome to this great forum you will get all the help and advice you need here, so ask ask ask as much as you want.

I do think from reading your post that you MIGHT benefit from a trial for the SCS. I suffer with Failed Back Syndrome after having numerous operations on my lower back ie. spinal fusions, discetomies, removal of hardware and then having the SCS permanently implanted, which is there now two years and definitely it is having a very positive effect on my lower back and down my legs. I suffer with a lot of leg pain from my buttocks to my feet and this definitely helps that pain. I too can relate to the pins and needles. I also get this awful burning sensation in my legs which drives me to distraction but the SCS helps that too.

Im not off all my meds but I have certainly reduced them....

Definitely go for the trial and see how you get on, it could just be the answer to your prayers

Take care

Jackie
