Is there any Dr out there that uses or person that has a Medtronic Spine stimulator?
I am looking at different pain sites and see bad things about it wires not working or batteries going dead. You can't have MRI or go be defib if you have a heart attack. Also no Ultar sound and lots of other problems.
I need to know if this device works since they want to put one into me.
None of the pain meds I was on work any more and I just had to do a rapid detox to get off the Morphine. I go on the 3-18-05 for a trial, but I am in so much pain it is unreal.
I use my external TENS machine and it helps some but I can't walk sit-up very long or go up and down stairs.
PLEASE anyone let me know if you have this MEdtronic device in you or a DR who inplants them.
