The pump gives you much more freedom and seems to be harder to jar out of position. I would never have the scs again. it also caused my rsd to spread.

I'll be looking for your pm.

Hi, My name is Wayne, I am going to have the pain pump put in on 1/7/13. I was hoping to find someone that already has one. I just want to know the good and the bad. I had the scs which did not help with the pain. I now take Morphine orally and that does help some but I worry about becoming to dependent.

Smile Hello Wayne!
Pain Pump member references:

Here is the testimony of Bobinjeffmo's pain pump:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/post701979-14.html

Here are some post references, both good and bad, to hopefully give you a realistic array of experiences:

http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread144925.html

http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/sh...945#post841945

http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/post778075-7.html

Another thing you can do is use the "Search" feature near the top of the page in the bar that runs across the screen (3rd option from right). Type in 'pain pump' and it will bring up prior posts and discussions on these.l

I hope you come on over to the SCS/Pain Pump forum in which MrsD gave you the link.

It's great to have you!

Rae
