Thank you for jumpin on board !
I'm sorry you are dealing with this pain at your incision sites. This is a big concern to me as I will be getting mine implanted on the 24th (same day as your appt) and I have heard several others stating the same thing. PLEASE keep us updated ! You outta start a whole new thread on this issue ! I'm anxious to see what your doc has to say about this. Well, anyway, I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and hope something will improve so you can continue to get the pain relief from the SCS. Truly Caring Rae |

Just wanted to let you know that the post you responded to is from a few years back. I had my implant in Feb of 2010. I see how tricky that must've looked since the 24th of Feb is right around the corner! I'm doing great with my unit! It covers the horrible burning neuropathy/RSD in both legs by about 70%. I still take pain meds for breakthru pain. I'm just so very sorry that you had a bad experience with yours . You deserve the best possible pain management out there and I hope your doctors are working with you to find other means of pain control. Thanks for the visitor message! And thanks for accepting my friend request! Talk soon! Rae |
