@wilcy can you talk a little more about your stimulator? So it is a spinal cord stimulator? When was it inserted? How much pain does it eliminate and how long has it been helping you? Have you had any complications with it? Another Connect poster @jimhd has described getting one and having significant pain reduction for between one and two years but says he no longer gets relief, so I would be interested in how long it has been helping you. Thanks, Hank
