My Doctors are pushing SCS any good news stories here?

I have been diagnosed with CRPS. I'm on very high amounts of opioids (Fentynal patches). I've been on high, high opioids for 2 years and my Doctors are pushing me to get a SCS. They claim that taking these high doses of pain meds isn't sustainable. Does anyone here have a successful SCS story with RSD or CRPS ?
