Should I have the Spinal Cord Stimulator? Looking for reviews on this

Almost 5.5 weeks for the trial, still waiting for permanent approval. I was told by the doctor 4-6 weeks for that approval too. I asked how I could have an MRI of my hip & a THR within 10 days? The answer was hips can be life threatening, pain is not. I had to reply they haven’t experienced my pain then.

WOW. I had no idea that this procedure was going to require so much time involved in getting pre-authorization and approval. It does not appear to be a very "speedy" process at all. So we're essentially looking at approximately 3-months time here. WOW!
