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.

If you go back through the pages you'll find several people using SCS.

I had back issues for 10+ years, including morning back pain, and never considered a mattress change. Then we packed up everything before our move from VA to GA and we had no bed to sleep on the last night. We considered a hotel but a friend suggested we borrow her camping air mattress. I used it and awakened the next morning to ZERO back pain. I quickly ordered the one you always see on TV and specified delivery at my new address. Morning back pain disappeared except for subsequent golf injuries. 15 years later and I'm still using the same bed.

@kthychrls11 I got mine 2 weeks after my trial. I live in SE GA and know 5 other people who have gotten them that quickly. Isn't another surgeon available?

@repeterb47 You're welcome. If your son needs more time don't hesitate to have his lawyer give a schedule to the judge. They usually are very understanding of medical issues. The jails don't need new problems; they already have enough.

I found it AFTER my tapering too quickly, unfortunately. It was suggested by someone on this website.

DO NOT stop quickly. My doctor's mistake in a 2-week taper produced the worst 6 months of my life. If memory serves correctly, the Ashton schedule for 2mg. of klonopin is 6 months with a step-down to valium.
