new to the forum
 
I was told by a friend to check this forum out. I have had a very rough 3-years. Do to a bad fall at work. 3-surgeries the last to correct some problems with a 3-level fusion. Now on the 28th of may will have a scs installed to help with the pain. The brand is Boston Scientific. The trial did not work as well as hoped. The pain techs. could not get me the pain relief down to my right foot ,spasming calf or thigh. Right hip, butt and lower back there was help.
Very concerned about this next step in my life, but can't live on heavy meds.
forever. Please help me threw this forum. :] Thank you all !

I don't know when u had your last surge. But maybe ur nerves need more time to calm down. I had ruptured disc L4/5 &Severe sciatic pain, it took over 2 yrs. For the nerve to calm down thou I still have lower leg numbness, sciatica is better.

Best of luck!!
