RE: Marta spinal stimulator/concerns

[Guest guest]

Marta,

Did not know you were talking about stimulator and Patsy is very correct and has

been there. You will have the trial and then a decision. Patsy is very logical

and objective.

I have been offered the stimulator but they think it will not work on my pain.

If I remember right from my consultation the pain pump has a same trial run

also, does it Patsy? I know the website medtronic.com explains the pain pump

but could you tell us about your trial

period with the pain pump?

Sorry I misunderstood that you were talking about the stimulator not the blocks.

Good Luck with what you chose. Patsy, I love your story and it explains the

procedure well.

They're hesitant about it for me, since the onset of my RSD was 18 years ago

(yes, you read that right, YEARS.LOL) BUT since the Lumbar blocks works

(pretty well, actually), they're hopeful. We'll see how the trial does.
