A neurosurgeon, who I am seeing, states that ones age affects the effacy of a pain pump. He does not recommend it for older people.

Does your neurosurgeon offer his/her reasoning behind the blanket statement that the older one gets the less efficacious a pain pump is?
Seems like a gigantic broad brush . It may or may not be true but I would need a much more specific response before I accepted that correlation.
