@wtaylor1028 When they initially put in my SCS in 2006 I didn't think it was working. It was already implanted so I kept it. When I was taken off of good pain meds and put onto suboxone by the VA then I could tell the SCS was working to some extent because I was getting very little help from the new med. Best treatment would be for the SCS and pain meds to work together which it was doing when the VA put me on Fentenyl patches with the SCS. When they took veterans off the pain meds, fentenyl patch, and put them on the suboxone (worthless) they screwed a lot of veterans. All because druggies misused it and died. Really dissatisfied with the VA.
