I decided today to looking for a place where I could communicate with other people who have had spinal cord stimulator implants - which I have now realized you guys refer to as SCS. I had my implant on Nov 30 last year and am not happy about where I am now. My surgeon and pain management drs tell me that I am recovering right on track, but I don't feel that I am even back up to where I was before I went in to surgery yet. Also, I am having some . . . interesting (and embarrassing) side effects and really want to know if I am the only one going through these feelings, effects, and emotions. I have looked around this site a bit and still feeling a little lost as I am not very computer or internet savvy! This was the only place that made since to post, at least for this.
