I've tried two scs types for my back pain. The first one was a Nevro which did absolutely nothing for my back pain. I inquired about reducing my pain meds after the implant and the pain management Dr stated that he had implanted hundreds( he must be wealthy by now) and no one ever gets off the meds. We'll, it's because the stimulator don't work! I did try another from Boston Scientific with the same results. I must have met with the rep weekly for at least three months before he said this is not working for me. I had it removed a short time later. Now I just have the same lumbar pain but without having this big sore lump on my ass. I'm looking for a good neurosurgeon in San Antonio that will take on my Medicare advantage plan. I guess their called advantage programs because they take advantage of their patients? I don't know your pain of course, but if you get an scs, run through your programs and if you don't get relief get it removed. I wasted four years on those things. Hope your trials come out better than mine.
