So,Thomas P.,I wish I would have seen your post before I went back
for more surgical and wallet abuse.I had the percaneous lead replaced
with a paddle in my cervical region.Now the burning in my back is
gone.Unfortunately severe swelling,and more complications have
occurred.For instance,I got the SCS because of RSD in my left arm,and
I have coverage in my arm,but I also have coverage everywhere
else,lol.And as I am sure you know,it isn't comfortable in body parts
that aren't in pain.The BS rep (boston scientific) informed me that
she has never seen a cervical paddle affect someone in their
legs...Exact words,"You must be wired differently".Meaning that my
nerves are different than everyone else's.Uh,yeh,ok.So,I have taken
a "surgical sabbatical".I hate the fact that we have suffured so much
with no avail.Maybe one of the kind attorneys on this site will
respond to our posts! Stay strong Thomas.
