@jesfactsmon I had to change pain management doctors and my former pain management doctor recommended my current one. With my former pain management doctor we applied with insurance for a spinal cord stimulator cause he had success with it. When I switched doctors the new one said he applied the stimulator at the lower leg instead of in the back. He had more success placing the device in the leg. So, I just went with his suggestion.

My former pain management doctor had tried a nerve block in my back instead of in my lower leg. That didn't seem to help. I figured if the nerve block in my lower leg worked but the one in my back did not, why not go with the stimulator in my lower leg where the nerve block worked.

I don't know of anyone else who has tried it. I'm going to ask the Nalu representative that calls me everyday to check up on my progress to see how common this procedure is.
