I appreciate the input that you and KS are exibitating. I havent had even a trial SCS put in yet, My concern is That it may cause a spread for 2 reasons forwhich may be no concerns at all to some,but they are to me,The 1st is that a TENS unit caused a major flare and spread both times that i used it at one increments,,and the 2nd reason is im in RSDII{causalgia], which im pretty sure that im in SIP and not in SMP , which from other testimonies here and from my own observation, any vibrations even from riding my motorcycle [the footpeg on the affected heel] causes a major flare and sends electical shocks and tingling and stinging in the heel into the foot and causeing a flare to occur anywhere from 2 hours to 10 days..So my concern and fear is that the SCS [may] spread the disease instead of masking the impulse to the brain to calm it down,,Ive always have been a weird duck when it comes to medical problems,,ussually when i break something,,I really break it,,,,,you all are the bomb,and my discernment does not fail me to see that you all are for real and sincere,,I wish you both a remmission along with the rest of this forum members,,we do need each other,,I can honestly concur to this,,my humility from this disease and from the Lord, has me to my knees,,the clock tic's on and RSd waits for no one,,some of the people here are blessed enough to have it somewhat under control,,mine is still spreading when no insurance and God as my advocate,,My ortho Dr is wanting to get rid of me,his staff is rude and callous,,exspecially knowing that my insurance bellied up,,makes it look like a deadbeat,,I wish that they would walk ten feet in my shoes to feel my pain,,my pain is so great at times in so many places at one time,most people or if his staff was plaqued with it would be trying to be admitted into a hospital,,and they love to point the finger,like,,I saw him at the gym doing theropy,which im in pain and limping on a cain,,that part and riding in a battery cart at the grocery store,,they forget to tell the dr that part,,when someone doesnt like you,,they make the innocent look bad and turn the good into the bad,,they see what they want to see and twist it into a lie,,,but i and God knows my pain and distress,,,,One day,,this will come to an end,,As I wait patiently on the Lord......When you have money,and good insurance to them you are a sick man in need of their assiatance,,but when that runs out,your a healed man,or { I hear them say to me] theres nothing more that I can do for you.......Bobber
