No. I can have a brief twinge if exposed to heat..hot tub
Or heating pad. But the all day pain and lightening bolts
Which stabbed me all day long are gone. I didn't expect
A remission but just some relief. The patches were just new
on the market and it took some experimenting to find
the exact spot where the nerve was to place the patches.

I still use them for my feet occasionally and my knee. But not often and I pulse them for about a week, when I do. They have
worked for me well. I have arthritis as well as PN.

I am fortunate to have the shingles diagnosis on file with
my insurance. So they pay for them partially.
