Spinal Cord Stimulation for chronic back pain

Hello. I had a Boston Scientific wave runner put in at the end of December 2023. I had a laminectomy to have the paddle installed. I have two leads that run down to the battery pack. While the recovery from surgery wasn’t fun I’m very happy with the outcome. My pain/sciatica is significantly reduced. I also had success from the trial which is why I chose to go for the surgery. As others have said it can be programmed by reps and you may have to meet up to have more program choices set up.

Hello
Interested in learning more about your stimulator. Did you contact the Boston Scientific Rep or go through your surgeon for the trial? What did the trial entail?

Hoping this may be a solution to delay my full lumbar fusion for as long as it works for me. ( if it works for me)
Thanks
