Pain pump question I have several different pain sources on my body: - sacrum - S2, S3 (left side of sacrum) - Coccyx - rectum (pudendal nerve pain) - L3, L4, L5 - T4, T5 Can one catheter deal with all those different pain sources? *Or is it because *the meds are placed into the spinal cord directly that their effect is systemic? *Somewhat similar to taking pain meds orally. I have not had my pain pump trial yet and I am hoping it will work.* Under what cases does it fail to work, when it fails? Comments, thoughts? Thanks! |
