Default Issues with scar tissue

Hi All!

It's been over a year since I had 2 SCS implants. Been lucky, as far as the whole surgical procedures and my happiness with them. Only just recently, have I noticed "nuisances" that I believe to be scar tissue related. One, is I've been having a lot of episodes with sciatic nerve down the left leg. Don't think it's from the battery implant itself that was placed on my lower hip causing it -- since it's been there for over a year -- but from continual scar tissue formation.
Also, I get the urge to rub on the incision area on the spine between my shoulder blades (at let me tell you, it's hard to get to!) of which I've never really had the urge to do before.

I once read that it could take 2 years for scar tissue to stop forming
Pretty scary reality. Anyone else with interesting experiences regarding scar tissue issues??

Thanks and God Bless!! Vanna
