"I'm not into pain pills or medical marijuana. I am now considering a spinal stimulator implant....." ...they suggested this to me, but the wires stick out from under your skin, & i could see this being a major problem in several areas. also, if u have a fusion, the currents may be 'blocked' for lack of better word. i did the epidural thing, next visit they're doing that heat-blocking of the nerves. i've never had that before without a surgical procedure, but will keep you updated on how successful the relief is. Bless You & hope you get some pain-free moments for your spouse
