Another thought @daisy22 .... If you haven't asked about a Spinal Cord Stimulator, check into that online and see if you think that might help with your pain. It is not a major surgical procedure to get one.... and you can have it for a trial period before deciding whether or not to go with the permanent implant of the device. Might be worth asking about. And you can find information about the SCS here on Connect. Best wishes! Mike
