Yes. I have one for my back. It's a Medtronic devise. It doesn't take much pain AWAY. But in my legs I was having a lot of issues and it helps about 70%of the time. If it wasn't for this. I could not walk. I was in a wheelchair for 3 years. I have had THIS one for 7 years. And I would ADVISE you to ask question. Fine people that HAVE had them. Because it can be a lot to deal with., but everything about this disease IS never sure. It's costly. But if you have Medicare and state care they will pay for it. They do a 7 day trial. But the trial always seems to help more and I don't know why. You have to have physic consult. Which all this is you have to fill out all these questions.and they just want you to know that it to help you with your condition it will not fixed. If you say" I just want something to help with the pain. I want never be fixed." As soon as you say that THE appointment will be over. And if you are ON any biologics you have too stop them 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after surgery and if you take antiobiotic longer you will be off longer.also you are appt to get an infection and be care with this. They do a same day surgery. And they send you home on antiobiotics and I had merca. If you have that get doctor first. Because I got it and a incision at my surgical site. And they could figure what was going wrong. But i had mine the Friday. Before Christmas Eve. Dr. Went on vacation to florida. Got deathly I'll because they used vancomycin powder. And I was allergic.and I was sent back to the hospital on the day after Christmas because of an allergic reaction and a bacterial infection. But after I got over that they have to adjust your settings because you pain can change so fast and you are hooked up to a charger daily depends how high your settings are. But I am not trying to discourage you. I just want you to be aware. And just ask all kinds of questions. Good luck and I hope you do well.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™
