Thank you. I know i need to leave this state before i die. So many nurses have told me thr same thing. What has been done to me here is totally wrong. My pain is so bad i just lay down and tears just pour down my cheeks. Im a fighter and a survivor so it is time to move but im going to make sure these surgeons that have caused me more pain are held accountable for their actions. I really dont like knowing other people are out there suffering like me because surgeons and doctors only care about the money. Maybe you will see me one day soon on the news putting these on blast.

I have had a Medtronic SCS for over ten years - with one replacement. It was a great relief early on but have found over the past years I have not used it for both good (improvement) and not so good (increasing other pain). I am now in is situation that looks to be CSS. I am anticipating requiring future MRI's so removal would be necessary. Replacement was not difficult but am curious to know the extent of surgery/recovery from a removal. I have a feeling I may be underestimating the process. Thank you for any input.
