Ed, you and your docs will need to work out what's best for you. However, I think that implanting something in your spine is kind of a last ditch effort to mask symptoms that are accepted as permanent. IMHO, just a few months post-op is a little early to be going to a stimulator.

I hope that you'll get a good effort at diagnosis... hopefully, you'll either find something or things will improve on thier own.

Good luck,

Mark
