@harrie123 Yes, mine worked really well for about three years until it suddenly just stopped. The thinking was that some of the electrodes had burned out. I tried another three years later but scar tissue from previous one did not allow proper placement of the leads. I have seen a mixed bag of responses regarding the SCS, Some are happy, but others did not have a good outcome. Glad you had success. One caveat: don't live as you did prior to implant. I am convinced that doing all the physical activities led to the demise of my SCS. Just try not to overdue it. That lead is in a very precise location. It can be affected by overdoing it. At least that's my take.

@harrie123 it sounds like you have been successful with the SCS, I may be a candidate in the near future. What system are you using. One issue that I have is that I’m seeing numerous reports of litigation regarding problems with all brands of SCS products.
