Hi Val, I am so sorry you are having so much pain. what stuck out for me in your thread is the fact that you are not even healed from your surgery. Those back surgeries can take months or up to a year to heal as well as some of the nerves that go with it. You stated you had nine injections, is that since your surgery? If that being the case isn't that like putting salt on an open wound. Early intervention is crucial for this illness, but your doctors need to get on the same page. And then to add the SCS implanted! You need to get your pain under control and allow your body time to heal from the surgery. I don't know if this helps, but you have a lot of business going on with your body right now. Do take the time you need to heal so you can make the proper choice. God Bless

Hello all,
Thank you all for your responses...The day I posted that I went to my back Dr to get the results of my MRI and CAT scan.Well the Dr wanted to have surgery done again,I was very hestiant to do this ,I called my Pain Dr and he agreed that I should go ahead with the surgery (due to the fact that I had no muscle control in my leg)
So I did go ahead with the surgery on Friday and the Dr found a peice of bone in my cage where the fused my L4 & L5 ,also there was alot of scarring.
As of today my leg and foot are feeling a bit better just a little bit of burning and tingling.Im hoping it stays this way.As my first sign of burning and tingling wasnt until 5 days after my 1st surgery.Thank you all for your support I really appreciate it.
Thanks,Val

I hope the worst is behind you now and you will heal well
