Hey guys,
I have a couple of questions for you and maybe you can help. I did call my pain docs office yesterday because the swelling in my left foot is worse and the pain that I am having is not so fun either. Especially with it going up into my calf. For anyone that has or had an scs could you tell me of what is happening with mine is normal? There has been a couple of times in the past couple of weeks that when I go to turn myself back on after I am done driving I don't feel anything. I have to turn it from 1.10 to 2.60 to get anywhere with it and then when it is at the setting for a while it really starts to burn so I then can set it back down to 1.10 again. Why is that happening? It has never happened before. Is it a possibility that the unit inside batteries are getting low? I don't know. I was going to say something to my pain doc if they ever call me back, but they will probably say something like just keep using it until it happens more often. I don't know if it is just because I feel like I am going crazy or what. Please if anyone has any info please share it with me. Yes it is also a medtronics unit. Thank you all. You all take care and will talk to ya real soon. Sincerely, Screwballpookie |

I Am Sry That U R Going Thru This But I Do Have A Possible Answer. I Had That With My Unit But I Had Other Problems As Well And They Told Me That One Of My Wires/leads Slipped Out From The Battery So It Was Only Connecting With The Battery Part Of The Time Hence
The Only Working Sumtimes When I Turned It On. I Hope That This Helps A Lil Sry If It Doesnt. Hope U Find An Answer Soon And My Thoughts R With U During This Frustrating Time.

If you stay on meds, i am on a new one , OPANA er, this is the first med that has greatly reduced my pain with very few side effects. I mean it was amazing. I have been on everything else,fentynal, oxycontin etc. Just a thought- alot of people havent heard about it. Good luck to you, sincerely, CZ QUOTE=Stacie;325560]I Am Sry That U R Going Thru This But I Do Have A Possible Answer.
