Also my Neurosurgeon approved it and the chance of a Grand Maul or any other seizure is low!

Please talk to your pain management Dr Abbott scs proclaim. As a former addict. I don't like pills and they haven't worked. I've had 3 epidurals, 20+ shots, steroids. No relief. The SCS device is the best thing that has improved my mobility.
