I tried every approved drug on the market, including narcotics. Acupuncture and CalMare as well.
Cannabis, too. Nothing helped.
In December, I had a procedure known as Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) done. Two electrodes were implanted on my spine, and were connected to an implanted battery controlled by a remote control. I have since regained control over my prior horribly painful chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy. I now can sleep well at night. The spinal cord stimulates the nerves in my feet to whatever degree I desire. It is absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a permanent desire to control their pain.

The SCS procedure seems rather invasive. Where is the battery implanted, and are you at all aware of its presence?
