Well fu@# me

My Wife has degenerative Disc disease and has had 2 neck surgeries and 5 lower back surgeries. She had a stimulator installed in 2003 with moderate success.Enough to at least make it tolerable. After 8 years it wouldn't take a charge any more and they wanted $ 45,000 to replace it which was not covered by the insurance we had at the time. She now gets by with a lot of ibuprophen and bio-feedback.She has a strong faith in God and a very high pain tolerance. She said she would have it installed again but is too old and tired of being cut on. I'm sure technology has come a long way since 2003. Good Luck with whatever you decide to do.
