Dear Roblin,

I'm so sorry that you find yourself in such dire straits. I'm glad that you found the AD's were helping... it gets to be so very dark and bleak when the depression gets to be so bad.

With such a significant structural problem, it would seem that symptom maskers like SCS would only be after reasonable options to address the mechanical problems have been exhausted. I have several clients with SCS... some have them after ADR, some have them removed when they get ADR.

All the best...

Mark
