What type of doc rx'd all those meds? Can you get into see a pain management doc who understands fibro? Tonight I'd love to have a SCS, but tomorrow whenit doesn't hurt so much, maybe not so much. My pain guy is solid gold for me.

At this point I'm considering my choices, though I don't have much, but I asked another doctor and he told me that SCS is for a small and specific category and mainly for back pain! So according to him I'm not a good candidate!  I'll consult my doctor once I get to see him. one more thing, does anyone know Dr. John Dombrowski of the Washington pain center? |

Can't help with the doc you asked about, I'm in Florida. I've had a 4 level cervical fusion, and have several herniated lumbar discs. I really don't want to do surgery there, and have thought about SCS. But like you, have been told no. So I guess when I crawl into the doc I'll get a yes. UGH
