Pete, I think you need to have a chat with your bone supplier, did you not get the lifetime warranty?

Trouble was JLR underwrote the warranty....  Pete

@ stan, wifey tried the spinal cord stimulater quite a few years back for her condition, unfortunately for her there wasn't enough relief of pain to warrant fitting it permanently. There were quite a few who have had it and their pain was virtually gone.
good luck I hope that it works for you.
forgot to say wife does have quite a rare condition crps with fixed distonia (complex regional pain syndrome).
It is quite hard to treat and manage, the nhs doesn't like spending money on it.

thanks for the heads up Greg..i'm not expecting much but if it works a little then i'll be happy.. ... - .- -.

Perhaps we could start a new section on faults and fixes for the human body.

we could call it the 'old git' thread  ... - .- -.

seriously. I hope everything goes well for you all.

well you just made me feel better (pete & stan) am only 39 tho

I feel surprisingly fortunate at the tender age of 51, and having 21 years of fairly high level rugby behind me, 10 years as a Club DJ (with all the associated "high life") and yet I still have all my own bones, in reasonably good condition as well.

Did manage to lose a couple of teeth on the rugby pitch though.

Pete. Good luck. With the Bank Manager AND the surgeon.

i'm due for 'spinal cord stimulation' operation soon and that has some weird stuff that will interfere with it.....we would make a right pair at an airport Pete..

Isn't that what they give pregnant women for pain relief Stan?

Erm, TENS I think they call the temporary version but I've used it for a bad back before. Works like a champ. A full on jobbie ought to be much better. Hope it goes well bud.

thanks Dom & Greg..

the thought of a wire going into my spine kinda sends shivers down my er, spine i get a week in hospital though.. ... - .- -.
