I have a Burst DR spinal cord stimulator, implanted by a local surgeon and guided by an Abbott rep. It was great for a year, then during the second year it had to be adjusted every 3 months. After that it didn't have any effect on my pain. I've never met the surgeon except in the surgery prep bay.

@jimhd Jim, please tell me exactly what you mean when you say "adjusted"...the implanted device? your remote? During my trial with the Medtronic SCS, I could reprogram the stimulator using the handheld remote device.
