My husband is thinking about getting an intrathecal implant for chronic pain in his lower back and peripheral neuropathy. Looking into medical information but i would put more value on personal experiences from people with similar issues.
Please respond with good and bad experiences.
Thank you in advance.
I’ve had mine for about 2 years and I love it. It has made such a huge difference in controlling my pancreatitis pain. I would have them put the pump in the backside not in abdomen. This is my personal choice. I didn’t want to catch it on the cupboard as I bent over. I will say it’s a great way to keep the pain away. I still have a little pain but not like I used to. Good luck and if you have any questions let me know!!! ❤️🙏
I have the exact same conditions you do so I added you to my team. I do my morphine orally. I am way to skinny for a pump. I also like to be able to control my morphine intake myself. I just got the doctor to take all the MS Contin out of my dose and I'm on all MSIR. 240 mg. 30 mg 8 X a day. I can't control that pump like that.
