Good morning,

I was curious about the rating for a Spinal Cord Stimulator. I had one implanted in me earlier this year. Had to have a revision done not to long ago for some complications. I am currently on a MEB for this and 2 degenerative discs. I've come across postings from years back about this question but no one ever came back to post the answer.

I ran into a retired SgtMaj with the SCS and he informed me that he got 30% alone from the SCS implant.

Just trying to confirm what the rating is.

Thanks
 
I would also like to know the answer to this. The Army implanted a cervical neurostimulator in me in March which triggered my MED Board. The stim is suppose to alleviate pain in my left arm but considering it is very dependant on the position of my neck, it works somewhat. I am still trying to remain on AD but would like to see some type of rating scheme for CRPS/RSD with a neurostimulator.
 
Old thread here but some good questions ya'll ever got an answer.
 
Sorry about the late reply, my MEB is up @ Washington so no results on weather I'm getting a MED sep or not. As far as rating for the SCS I have not gotten anything back and I dont think their is a rating for it but I will let you know when it comes back.
