Should I have the Spinal Cord Stimulator? Looking for reviews on this

Thank you for sharing. My pain specialist recommended the Boston Scientific SCS yesterday. I’ve had two back surgeries, and multiple injections and am currently taking Lyrica and Tramadol. The pain is debilitating and getting worse. Those medications might as well be placebo. I take them only at night, I don’t want to be goonie during the day. So, today I’m looking for all the cons and the % of folks having issues as a result of the SCS.

Can you please let me know if you moved forward? Your story sounds so similiar, 2 surgeries, same injections and meds. My surgeon told me I would always have some back pain but he would be able to get rid of my leg pain 100% and it hasn't happened. My surgeon also recommended Boston Scientific but I have been reading the pros and cons of each brand and its quite overwhelming! Hope to hear it all went well for you!
