Talking Update on my st Jude peripheral SCS.

It has been along while since I have posted. I have good times and bad times but overall I am doing great. In the past year I have gone down from 175 fentanyl patches every 36-48 hours to today, 150 mg of nucynta with 3-4 15mg roxy for bt taken in halves before or now. That is OVER 80% reduction in narcotics since my SCS peripheral journey began. My new battery, eon mini, is not a problem.

I don't see getting off completely narcotics like Mark but I do feel much better. My doctor said my procedure is off label but my only issue is a small area of pain in my lower back.

I want to thank each of you for all your prayers and encouragement given to me, ya'll are awesome!

Dean.
