neurostimulator = does anyone have one implanted?
Posted: Sat Nov 12, 2011 6:20 am
Mods, sorry I didn't know where else to post this question.
I have nerve entrapments in my left leg so a new doc on my case wants to implant a neurostimulator, which from what I understand, makes the pain 'tingle' instead of 'burn'.
Others I spoke to said it didn't work for them since it didn't help the pelvic pain.
Is a neurostimulator something anyone has heard of for PN and PNE? It seems like it masks pain so I'm not sure why I would get it.
Thanks for any info you may have.
