Mine does take away my pain, but I become anxious while it is pounding inside me now that they have taken me off my clonazepam...I can only deal with it for about 45 minutes at a time.

Does it help relieve all of your pain?

What brand are they contemplating? I have a 4 lead Medtronic spinal cord stimulator.. I had it placed in 2002, the leads are the original, and the battery is new rechargable one that was replaced last June.

I have a spinal cord stimulator that I can set the rhythm of stimulation not just burst. It has worked great for the last 10 plus years but my battery in my back is dying so it isn't good at all right now. If you have questions I will be glad to answer what I can.

Didn't work for me. Had 3 stimulators put in, and removed in just s couple days. Made things worse.
