Default Failed back surgery and Medtronic pain pump issues
I've had my pain pump for seven months. I've tried three medications so far. The side effects from the medicine and the discomfort from the pump are worse than the back pain!
Question... Is it too soon to ask the doctor to remove it?

I posted something similar a month ago and no one responded. Thought I'd try this one.
Thanks

David,

I replied, with my opinion, as much as I can help, on your other Thread this afternoon.

Dave.
