Hi, multiple of my doc's have recommended spine stimulators for different reasons. The effective rate of the study I read for the last one (Abbott - pain) was like 80%; not nearly good enough for me to have something implanted in my body that may not work and may cause other issues.

@mrsr1234 I understand where you are coming from. Remember, there are no guarantees for any medical procedure. Consider doing the trial, which does not require any hardware to be permanently implanted. It will give you an idea whether the device will help you. Check out the Boston Scientific Waveriter. It is the top rated SCS. I wish you well in your pain journey.
