Spinal cord stimulator support

Good luck with your stimulator! After having a failed back surgery and seeing a Mayo doctor I found out I have a screw loose from my lumbar fusion. I was recommended to get a stimulator instead of fixing the loose screw. So what stimulator has everyone tried and found successful for the lumbar . I also need neck surgery but was told by the doctor not to, does the lumbar stimulator also help with the neck.

I have an Abbott spinal cord stimulator called prodigy. I've had it now for approximately 3 years. It is placed in my lumbar and I am 100% relieve the pain. Not everyone gets 100% relief some get 50% of 60 some less. I pray that you'll get 100% like I have. As far as the neck goes from what I know there is a stimulator perhaps the same one that helps people that have neck pain. For me my pain management specialist has just given me injections or in a ablation. They seem to work. God bless you. Brother Chuckles80
