Spinal Cord Stimulation

Posted by billweigle @billweigle, Feb 8, 2019

Does anyone have experience they could share with spinal cord stimulation (SRS) for either lower back pain on both sides or post herpetic neuralgia (PHN) from shingles in the lower right side and back. I have had both pains for nearly two years and am doing a seven-day trial with a Boston Scientific SRS unit.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Spine Health Support Group.

Welcome @sukimach, I'm not sure Sean @seanivor is still following Connect as they last posted in March 2020. Hopefully other members can share their experience with spinal cord stimulators.

Are you considering a spinal cord stimulator implant?
