Confused Why do I ned a psych eval before a SCS trial?


OK, I have been scheduled to go for a psych evaluation to determine if I am a candadate for a Spinal Cord Stimulator. I am not sure I understand why I need a psych eval for the trial. If anyone out there can clear this up for me, I would appreciate it. I don't know too much about he SCS, and so I do not know if it will be helpful or not. I am experiencing SO much electrical shocking pain...I do wonder if an SCS will be appropriate. Any input out there?
Thanks!
