Severe SI joint pain and pain stimulators

Pain pump has helped a little with the neropathy in my right foot. Doesn't burn quite so much. No SI joint surgeries. Not looking to have any more surgeries. Seems like they mostly turn out with no improvement or worsening of pain. Sorry you have had so little success in your quest for pain relief. As I read through all the comments from folks who have so much more pain issues than I do, I sometimes feel a little ashamed to be compalining about my pain. But, each person has their own pain that impacts their life in its own unique way.

I’m happy to hear you are getting some relief from the pain pump. I was recommended by the doc to get the stimulator instead of the pump. If the doc I see on Friday concurs with the other doc then I will move forward with the trial on the Medtronic pain stimulator. I don’t think it’s going to help. The reviews from others don’t seem to be positive.
Thank you. I hope your pain gets better. I keep hoping each day they can figure out why I am in so much pain. It’s sad I look forward to going to bed at night because when I fall a sleep I am no longer in pain. I don’t have any issues sleeping.
