Medical Card Question, spinal cord simulator for pain management?

12 ga · May 9, 2019

I had sciatica and 3 bulged discs. This required an 8 in incision. I was out of the truck for 30 day then back in with no issues what so ever. Maybe yours was more serious than mine, or maybe I had a better surgeon?

I did a overview of one particular pump and the few medicines availible to it.

Here is the paragraph that lists the drugs one of several that will be selected for a patient.

US: Chronic intrathecal infusion of Infumorph® preservative-free morphine sulfate sterile solution in the treatment of chronic intractable pain, Prialt® chronic intrathecal infusion of preservative-free ziconotide sterile solution for the management of severe chronic pain, and chronic intrathecal infusion of Lioresal® Intrathecal (baclofen injection) for the management of severe spasticity. Outside of US: Chronic infusion of drugs or fluids tested as compatible and listed in the product labeling.

Source of that paragraph link and manufactor, you have several pain pump situations availible. My Clinic offers them in Little Rock through a hospital but my situation is not severe to need one just yet. (We are on our way up so to speak as the degeneration proceeds)

It is a opinion that several medicines could be used with good success directly into the spinal canal with the main control nerves direct to the brain and kill the pain problems without a narcotic anything. Its possible. And so driving a 18 wheeler will be a very good outcome.

The other thought is that this will be a device that is under electronic control. If you have gone into some of the foundries and mills like i have where huge induction currents are used and other radiation in terms of industrial electric power it would be a threat to it. Something to keep in mind.

I read what you said about pain pumps the medications used and the hope and possibly fact that I would be able to qualify for a CDL and drive 18 wheelers
Just wanted more information and where you got before I approach the department of transportation and then my physicians for implants on of this isn’t solid information it’s all for NOT.
