Anyone tried Spinal Cord Stimulation for Chronic Pain?

I have the Boston Scientific Spinal Cord Implant and on 3/14/23 I’m at my one year anniversary for the implant. It is a huge blessing! I have CRPS in both legs/feet. I’m back to living my life again at 71 years old with very little pain. I can walk on my own with out the aid of a crutch or cane. Currently working on losing the weight that I put on with the disease and the COVID lockdown. Go to the Y three times a week and do water aerobics. Walking is also part of my daily life. Can now hike again. I followed the instructions to a T with the implant. Did have a hiccup with the company representative but have since found a fabulous gal that probably adjusted everything. The home office is excellent. They will answer any question I have and they make sure I am comfortable before ending my call. Recharging my back takes about two to three hours every 14 days or so. If I have discomfort I can adjust my remote and within 30 minutes I can adjust it back to where I started. Erin is my representative in Hickory, NC and she is extremely knowledgeable. Prompt on returning my call.

I investigated five implant procedures and Boston Scientific fit my need the best.

You're a lucky guy! Wish I could say I had any level of success at all with the Abbott device.
