How to get an objective expert opinion on spine stimulators?

I have peripheral neuropathy in my feet plus now I have painful sciatica that effects one leg. They thought it was piriformis syndrome, had piriformis release surgery and I still have the pain. Finding out if my back is causing sciatic pain. In any case, can the stimulator work for both? Any opinions?

I am suffering from a failed back surgery the surgeon said everything was good so go see a pain doctor for a pain stimulator. When I seen him he agreed with me somethings wrong. He also told me the stimulator would help the nerves in my legs but not the back pain I’m having. A friend also has one and he said the same thing. I had L4- S1 fusion last April

I have neuropathy in my legs and feet as well. I find Lyrica works well for it. I have degenerative scoliosis and get radio frequency ablation. The sciatica and right leg pain turned out to be the Si joint, not piriformis! I am 85.
