I'm currently not on a pain pump. A SCS is sort of a last resort. In March I am going to try the Sprint PNS system. Like other SCS devices there is a week trial and if it provides relief the Sprint system is removed after 2 months and after that you should be good for the rest of your days.
You can't just ask your doc for it as it has to be medically justified since nothing else works. I'm not sure a pain pump would work for me.
