Pain pump reviews

Posted by christine5 @christine5, 4 hours ago

I am slated to get a pain pump for serious spine problems. I cannot have the surgery to repair because I have an abdominal aortic aneurysm, they would have to go in through the front. And the neurosurgeon refuses to do that. My insurance company won't approve a spinal stimulator because I haven't had spinal surgery, but they will approve a pain pump. I would just like to hear some success. And or failure stories.
Thank you.

Something to consider ! I had a Spine stimulator that was MRI compatible and went to get a CARIAC MRI and was told sorry can’t do it ! After speaking to them they said you can’t get the Cardiac MRI if you have a pain pump possibly Medtronic might be ) or the Inspire device for Sleep Apnea ! So if you have a heart condition or family history call your local Heart Center and ask about a Cardiac MRI with a pain pump ! Wish you the best of luck!
