@heisenberg34 my late husband had a scs put in during the early 2000's. He still played professional soccer and I fought him on it. He got other injuries and his scs in those days isn't like today's. The wires got scar tissue on them and entangled in some nerves. He couldn't have the surgeries he needed bc they couldn't remove the scs....it was the pill mill days of the opioid crisis. It killed him in December 2015 and left me penniless. I have 3 class action lawsuits right now bc of that.....START DOING THE RIGHT THING....I BEG YOU 💔😭

@abosier65 That' really sad to hear. Yes, the opioid crisis claimed many lives. I don't know if you saw the series, Dopesick, with Michael Keaton, but it focuses pretty well on that issue. He was really brave to do all that physical stuff with a SCS. I think my downfall was to take up skiing again... the very thing that put me in chronic pain in the first place.
