What Causes Persistent Chronic Back Pain While On A Spinal Stimulator?

I have completely herniated my L4/L5 disc. Since August 2017 I was on a cane unable to walk without the cane. The pain has been unbearable. After several failed epidurals I agreed to try a trial period of the Nevro spinal stimulator. In a week I was 60% improved. I agreed to have surgery to implant the permanent spinal stimulator on Dec. 6th 2017. I am still experiencing lots of pain. I am not close to be being 60% improved like I was with the temporary implant. I also have bursitis & bone spurs in my hips. I don t understand why I am not improving as quickly as I did with the temporary implant? Can you help me understand what is going on???
