Had a Medtronic SCS?

@gotit123 I had the Medtronic SCS implanted about eight years ago. It worked really well along with my meds. I could do almost everything that I could do before my accident. It stopped working suddenly in 2021. All my pain came back. Looking back, I think I overdid it quite a bit which may have led to its demise. So, to those of you with a functional SCS, DO NOT OVERDUE IT. Just because you feel good doesn't mean that the pain is gone. The electrical signals only mask the pain. Don't take a chance like I did. It's not worth it in the long run.
