Pain pump, I have one, how about one for you?

Good Morning - I've been reading your comments on your pain pump. A new PM has suggested I get one as well. I noted in one of your comments that you stated it did not help your Neuropathy. I have a SCS, which does help to somewhat reduce my actual back pain, but the SCS and the highest levels of meds allowed today, do not touch my very severe burning in my feet & legs spreading into my thighs. (Left/Right at different levels and intensity.) I wonder if you have the same type of Neuropathy that I have? Or if it is not caused by your damaged spine, maybe in your arms or other spots? Mine is from damaged nerve roots in lumbar spine. Why doesn't your pain pump reduce that pain also? Can you explain more on this topic please? Thanks!

I have very similar symptoms. No doctor can pinpoint the exact source of my pain. The pump gave me decent relief for about a week. Then it kind of stopped. They are perplexed. I am at a relatively high dosage, but what is too high? We just moved to Delaware so I have to find new docs.
