Experience with neurostimulators?
Posted: Wed Feb 23, 2005 12:52 am
Hi,
I'm 16 months post trauma left total bpi. I had nerve transfer surgery last March and am getting some tricep and bicep back (yipee!).
My issue is pain. I'm on 75mg Duragesic (fentanyl patch, Gabapentin 3600MG/day, Mexiletine 1200MG/day and ramping up on Cymbalta to 60MG/day.
I'm heading down the path of Neurostimulators and hope some of you can share your experiences with me re: efficacy, hassles, etc. I want to be pain and drug free this year!
