I just received my temp nerve stimulator for the 6 day trial period and from the start I'm already having issues from it. First of all my pain location is from L5 to S1 and I've tried everything for pain, this is my last resort. Anyway after procedure was completed I right away noticed a uncomfortable tingling sensation in my groin area and the pain in my back still is.....a pain in my back. Can someone tell me if they have also experienced this type of unsettling sensation? Your answers are much appreciative. Thank you.
Tell the SCS technician (or doctor that placed the temp SCS) that tingling is in the wrong area. when they fi st put in my temporary, the tingling was in my ribs. They adjusted until I was able to tell them that the tingling is in the right area. Have you contacted the rep? They should be readily available to you.
Hi....Maybe they have your stim. Set for tonic thereby you would receive that tingle. Secondly the setting might be set too high.
What brand of stim are you trying? Call,your rep and explain the sensation you are getting. Good luck. Dee
