“I was running 8/10 pain over the last five years. Three and a half years ago I underwent a spinal decompression and last April I underwent a three level lumbar fusion due to progressive back pain. I continued to experience increased pain despite these two surgeries. I was unable to walk, I had no social life, no sex life, it was rough. There was no much I could do because of my pain. I was referred by my primary care to IPPMC due to my pain and I underwent a permanent placement of a spinal cord stimulator. Since then I am back to working in my shop, I have cut my pain medications in half and life is good and a lot better than what it was. I am very happy with my decision and so is my wife.”
