DRG SCS Denial
Posted: Wed Feb 14, 2018 7:28 pm
Hi my name is Marianne I have had PN for 5 years . I was entrapped and had decompression surgery in shyly of 2017. Unfortunately it made me worse. I have tried more nerve blocks and two of the amniotic allograft injections but nothing’s seems to help. I think I worked myself to hard into the pain before I got diagnosed. I was a New nurse and worked those long shifts running the halls of the hospital. Now I am home bound. Cigna has denied my request for a dorsal Root ganglion scs twice. Now it is time for my doctor to appeal. I would appreciate any research articles or personal stories to support the use of the scs in my case. Any advice appreciated.
