No not an implanted stimulator, just the pads that are put on the back. I'm not looking to implant anything else in my spine. My question is about the pads that are put on the back. There seems to be differing opinions on the stim pads.
I'm actually feeling 1 point better today. (7/10) I also seem to have alot more movement & flexibility than I had 3 weeks ago. Still alot of pain but more movement.
Maybe things are looking up.
