Hi, my pain management dr suggested it but I declined. My urologist suggested it for incontinence. My Ortho suggested it for the knee pain I constantly have due to a botched knee replacement. I had 5 knee surgeries in past 10 yrs. It seems that everything wrong with me can be fixed with an implant. I don't think it will address my Fibro pain.

I'm so sorry Debra!! I didn't say this before. I went to the Neurosurgery doctor at the VA hospital today about it and they said that the SCS would help my low back pain but not my mid back and neck and they want to put me on a morphine pump!! I thought that they had to know that I have become addicted to pain meds in the past, surely it's in my records but Idk....I'm desperate at this point!!!
