: to anyone, did anyone have a dorsal column stimulator put in. did you have take a psych exam. and if you had a psych exam and did,t do well how did you turn it around to get the dorsal column stimulator. can anyone give me any suggestions, i didn't have a good psych evualtion. please i need some help here.
Alen, I just wanted to add something about the psych eval. I would get your own therapist, psychologist or counselor. somebody you can trust and talk too openly. If there psych test had a negative profile you need to work with somebody independent of those docs. Once you have established relationship with a psychologist or counselor he can be an advocate of your mental health. His opinion should count more than a multiple choice test. That test is just a personality profile based on the circumstances that your faced with now. Get your own shrink...
