Understand how you feel. If it’s any comfort, I had my Medtronic’s SCS removed last Tim May. The surgery went smoothly and had only minimal pain post op for about a week. Removing the paddle was tricky so it’s important to have a great neurosurgeon who has expertise with this surgery.
I pray you have good results too. God bless and keep you.

Hi Archie here-/ I’m starting to walk the removal path. I get absolutely NO RELIEF from the SCS, only complications. Most problems related to Gastroparesis. “if your body says no, it’s gotta go!” No ambiguity here.
Be well, Archie

Thank you, I definitely will make sure I have the best in the Columbia SC area. I saw one in Charleston SC a couple months ago. I wouldn't let him operate on the dog.
