Severe lumbar nerve pain

My stimulator is from Abbott. I've only had it for 3 weeks. The first week when the rep was dialing it in I never felt any stimulation where my pain is. I just started dialing it up 3 numbers every 3 days. Today I think I have a little relief but I'm not sure it's the stimulator or the fact that I spent 2 days in bed from the pain. Everyone keeps telling me to give it time. Will keep you posted.

Seems like you should have received some pain relif by now. Three weeks is quite a long time. Did you have a trial, and, did it provide any pain mitigation?

@kburt911 I’m really curious how you got the stimulator approved by insurance. I am in the process of appealing their denial
