I really feel for you! I can't imagine what you've already been through much less having to decide to do it all over. It's no big deal for the surgeon, no matter what happens they can go back and "fix it". It's "tuesday" for them but I don't think they realize how devasting it is for their patients.
I'm just facing my 1st SCS right now and I can't decide either b/c I've read so much of what everyone has been through.
What are your alternatives (if any) if they just take it all out?
