What type of doctor do you get your PN care from?

I got my diagnosis from a Neurologist who I see about every 4 months so that she can monitor my progression. My Primary care doc prescribes most of my med needs and my pain specialist has helped with insertion of a Spinal Cord Stimulator and shots to my spine to block pain. All together, this configuration is working well for me.

In 2 days I am scheduled for the "test" Spinal cord stimulator. Wondering why you also needed shots for blocking pain. Does the stimulator itself not block the majority of pain? Also, are you also taking Gabapentin?
