My name is Rick Smith, and I'm a new member (11/8/13). I broke everything in a car wreck in 1988. I've had 2 Boston Scientific SCS units for about 6 years, and NEVER turn them off, or down. One is lower back and one is neck. Now, because of spinal degeneration, they want to do traction to try and help the pain. I have already had one electrode break about six months after implant, but they worked around it (sort of). I just emailed Boston Scientific for an OK, and I haven't heard back yet. I'm afraid the electrodes will either break of disloge under traction. Has anyone got experience with this?"
