Thumbs up Nevro stimulator
Hi all I'm 19 and having trial for Nevro stimulator next week. I have chronic daily headaches lasting around 3 years, I was hoping I could get a bit of info from start to finish about having a Nevro. This battery will be under my arm has anyone had this most Iv read is in buttocks. What is a paddle? Are you asleep for trial is it painful afterwards. What's average trial time? Any info about the op or useful info would be much appreciated getting anxious.

Default Hi Stev
The paddle is a wider flattened approach to the stim lead. Being thus, it is more secure upon implant against movement such as throwing hay bales.

I was in twilight as the trial was emplaced. It allows thus for communication with you to verify proper placement.

The trial is easy for recovery as the insertion point of the leads is about it invasively. I felt able to handle really trying it out within a day.

I hope all goes well with you!

Come check us out at the SCS forum Mrs D recommended.
