I had a double spinal fusion in 2022. The fusion worked but left me with terrible lower back pain. I have tried steroid injections that didn't work. The doctor has tried trial procedures which also failed. I am going to try the Sprint PNS system. Has anyone had this done? I hope someone on this great site has experience with this procedure. It's my last option supposedly.

What is Sprint PNS ? I had decompression surgery only, but now I have pain in my left toes when I walk too much and can't walk on for half a day after.
They want to do cortisone shots but I have osteoporosis which gets worse from cortisone.
