Spinal Cord Stimulator

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Claremont, NC

I have had Fibromyalgia for over 25 years now suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, RA etc.
My question is this...does the Spinal Cord Stimulator work? Does anyone have one or tried one? I have my psch evaluation tomorrow, then soon after the temporary one will be installed. Any advice appreciated.
Thank you!

I recently bought an over the counter TENS device that Icy Hot makes about 30$ ,, seems to help with isolated pain ie. my hip or lower back

I have been using a Tens unit for about 6 yrs and it does help some, thats why I am thinking maybe the Spinal Cord Stimulator would work too.
