@danny5 Good luck convincing the surgeon you have the Saddle Anesthesia; my surgeon wouldn't get me out of the wheelchair just said I didn't have it or the pain that radiated from my sacrum to my testicles. He said there's nothing wrong recommending I have a stimulator put in come to find out its a failed back surgery but unfortunately no one else is willing to fix the loose screw. I finally gave in to a spine stimulator it was wonderful until I bent to soon and moved the leads. the stimulator took care of 95% of my pain the anal, testicle, nerves in my legs, it even helped my neck pain. I'm going to see a new Neurosurgeon Tuesday about putting the stimulator with paddles in, hopefully they can reuse the Boston Scientific Stimulator and just replace the wires
