I SO UNDERSTAND!! I had my trail SMS put in and it was AMAZING. RELIEF.. BUT THEN…..
came the permanent SMS placement and the unbearable pain just as you described began. It gets better, Just days after placement I had pain so bad in my neck I could barely move it, but I wasn’t being treated for neck pain. JUST LIKE YOU we could never get the correct setting. Then the kicker, I received an electric shock twice within about a week. My doctor, the SMS rep, and SMS company were all notified about what happened back in November of 2022.
I was told my device was defective and needed to be replaced by my doctor after testing was completed.
It is March of 2023 and I still have the device in me.
It has been turned off since November of 2022 and like you said my pain is worse then before before the device was permanently
placed and now I pain in I never did before, which I have informed my doctor of.
So I am hoping we both find help soon.
