Abuse of Opioids takes away from all the good it can do

How effective is your stimulator?
How about location of generator ?Near buttocks or abdomen?
Everything stopped helping my nerve pain. I got so stiff dt decreased activity, I’m stiff as a board usually the worse is evenings & night. My intrathecal pain pump is being reduced 10% twice monthly to wean off Opiods, Baclofen, Bupivacaine, Clonidine all in unnecessary pain pump.
New pain management doctor told me to take Alpha Lipoic Acid/ OTC antioxidants. Shockingly the past four days have been remarkable. Driving after two years, new puppy has me everywhere like back yard, training, use of puppy door.
Evenings go back to hell, puppy screeching 😬 Research ALA as it could not hurt & safe, but research necessary for your own proof. Higher dose split twice daily per self research. It’s used for other ailments.
Good luck & Best Regards,
Nancy

They could not do stimulator as there wasn’t enough room in the spinal cord with syringomyelia

@budreaux Thanks for your post and to anyone else reading - is there a brand of R-ALA that seems to work best? I've been taking for a year with no change.
