Hi @vac1979 - welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I wanted you to know I moved your post here to this discussion where others were talking about the Abbott spinal cord stimulator:

- Has anyone had an Abbott spinal cord stimulator put in there back? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/has-anyone-had-an-abbott-spinal-cord-stimulator-put-in-there-back-has/?

Perhaps here you will also encounter others who have been part of the same clinic trial you mentioned and who can comment on the Abbott device in general or any differences between the trial stimulator and the actual one.

Please meet @ptvegas @artemis1886 @vincescs @jnd2023 and others, who may have thoughts for you.

Glad you've also connected with @bilt4pain.

What are your next steps to manage your back pain, then, vac1979?

@lisalucier you sent me a personal message aka email. I can’t have a spinal cord stimulator so I do not know why you moved me to this group.

Hi @artemis1886 - I tagged you because you were already part of this discussion on spinal cord simulators, and I see now that you are unable to use it.
