Anyone used Spinal Cord Stimulation for pudendal nerve entrapment?

Posted by rstollery @rstollery, Dec 12, 2019

I saw a health program on our local TV station last night about a Connecticut man who had good success in treating chronic pain with a StimwaveFreedom Spinal Cord Stimulation System. Has anyone tried this for Pudental Nerve Entgrapment? I understand it's quite exensive, but after nearly 40 years of chronic pain I am open to anything.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Chronic Pain Support Group.

@user_ch98d0b5c and @scruffy1, Page numbers exist on a discussion when there are more posts than fit on one page like in this other discussion on Spinal Cord Stimulation - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/spinal-cord-stimulation-2/ The page numbers are at the bottom of the discussion description when you scroll to the top of the page.

I have had my Boston Scientific stimulator since 2012. That was replaced in 2018 with a newer model. I find it very helpful for my neuropathy in my legs and CRPS in both feet as well as lumbar pain due to a variety of problems. I now use it 24 hours a day with night time use being on silent or close to it. I am allergic to many meds that might help, but I find this much more acceptable. Have any questions I might be able to answer, I'd be glad to. I also have pudendal nerve damage from the first child birth experience 45 years ago next Tuesday!- I don't have pain, just loss of functions.

I am looking for a dr that uses Boston scientific CSC. Have pudendal neuralgia and pheripheral nueropathy. Am looking for information on finding a Dr who uses BS CSC.

I have had great success regarding lower back pain from my high-frequency SCS. It's been more than 2 years that I can sit in the morning without pain. It has NOT helped with my neuropathy. I know it's working because when I forget to charge it, my back starts hurting. It's charging this morning as I type this, pain-free.
