Dr. Reeser has been assigned to manage Becky’s pain. After Mayo declined Becky’s admission Dr Reeser decided to pursue a different route. Today at 5pm Becky will have a spinal cord stimulation rod placed.
“Spinal cord stimulation" (SCS) is a form of therapy used to treat certain types of chronic pain. It involves an electrical generator that delivers pulses to a targeted spinal cord area. The leads can be implanted by laminectomy or percutaneously and the source of power is supplied by an implanted battery or by an external radio-frequency transmitter”.
The doctor thinks this will help her pain by at least 50%. Lets pray it does. Unfortunately thats all we know at this time.
