Stoaway I seen your post I to have spinal Arachnoiditis and hereditary idiopathic neuropath I reached out because of talks about a spinal cord stimulator I had placed almost a year ago it helped some but not to the level that I would go get surgery as a matter of fact I’m having problems and having it removed my pedal insert has came loose that attaches inside and is causing havoc right now . This is a downfall to what could happen so now I have pain on top of the pain that I already had in the first place it’s been extreme pain and isn’t going away until they get me into surgery and seems there in no hurry as there is other surgeries in front of me I would think this is an emergency situation as this could cause even more damage to my spinal cord etc. Also when you have one of these depends on the leads you have you can’t get an MRI only x-rays with the one I have only head ct scan . I’m really worried because I can’t move around to much that it might mess me up even more
