Hi to Mark, Rrae, Jenna, Sinead, Saffy, JoanB etc,etc. I love reading all your posts. I have chronic neuropathic pain syndrome, severe facet joint disease, severe sacroillitis , illioinguinal and illiohypogastric neuralgia. I have chronic neuropathic pain syndrome and had had numerous procedures in the past 2 years---- nerve blocks. radiofrequency abalation, pulsed radiofrequency lesioning, all to no avail.. I have had to give up work and now live with many limitations in my daily living. Medication leaves me with a foggy brain. My consultant plans to use the Nervo unit. Maybe we have the same consultant.

Best wishes,
Patricia

You have been through much, and I hope as you approach Trial fully informed the very beginnings of the stim application to your many issues will bring peace. Understanding that with the Nevro unit there is no "side effect" tingling or buzzing, the wish for peace from the Trial IS the true objective. My, but our group of friends from Ireland grows and grows!

Caring!
