Anyone out there diagnosed with Pudendal Neuralgia?

My SCS got rid of this pain for me. But you must be prepared to work with techs to get the settings just right after initial placement if needed. Any changes in the settings must be left for 48 hours before changing to different setting. If you decide on your own to zip through settings, you are not giving your brain time to adjust and you will get no relief.
Lyrica and Cymbalta also give some relief but I am weaning off trying to see if SCS is effective alone.

@bunnybear were you able to get off of meds and just have the SCS? I will be having my permanent implant in a month. I’d love to get rid of lyrica. I don’t like the brain fog and dementia risk.
