Anyone tried Spinal Cord Stimulation for Chronic Pain?

@martyk My pain gradually took over the whole of both feet and ankles, and is slowly moving up my legs. The St. Jude/Abbott spinal cord stimulator gave 80% relief during the trial, somewhat less with the permanent implant for the first year. The Abbott DRG stimulator trial had no effect and was falling apart at 4 weeks, so we abandoned it.

Jim, sounds like you would not recommend DRG Abbott. Thanks for sharing.
