I'm getting a Spinal Cord Stimulator in Two weeks.

Hi, I'm new here.

In 2 weeks I get a permanent SCS implant, and am so excited . I had the 7 day trial application, and to my astonishment, was relatively pain free for the first time in 10 years.

Are there any others here with the SCS?

My other chronic illness is PMR, which I developed in 2013. My treatment is daily prednisone to manage that condition.

I look forward to meeting others with neuro issues, and pain management challenges.
