AXON THERAPY

I haven't tried Axon therapy but I don't have pain with my neuropathy. @sash, @proteusx, @maintain and others have mentioned Axon therapy in other discussion and may have some information or experience to share.

Not really a review but did read the press release...but only 70 patients participated in the study.

The VA is expanding the Axon therapy to more facilities all the time, outside, medical is also expanding ,they are having very good responce from what I hear,If it only help 50% with pain that great news,but 85% I will be getting it done somewhere, the therapy Is not wide spread yet so you will have to check the manufacturer for ther new location,Ther are a lot more using the therapy now from what was initially uesd.If it wasn't decreasing pain with all our vets, they would not be expanding use,If theres anything out there that will help eliminate all the pain on our web site,we need to spread the word,I have used most meds and supp and hundreds of $ for years,I still have the pain, I am in the process of finding my Axon therapy.I will let you know if I am in the 85%

for current locations

Mostly confined to some VA hospitals at present. They have been trying to get the technology covered under Medicare for greater expansion but don't know that that has succeeded as yet. I think the therapy is helpful for pain (itself a great boon) but not for disease modification. "Scrambler therapy" appears to be more widely available with possibly better data in support of its pain-relieving claims. Both seem to have merit. The FDA approved Qutenza, which people widely misunderstand and confuse with very low-dose capsaicin topicals, has shown some disease modifying capability but is only approved for pain relief, particularly in the diabetic foot. Counter-intuitively, Qutenza, due to its unique formulation, actually has fewer side effects than the far weaker over-the-counter capsaicin preparations and is, not surprisingly, far more efficacious. It requires a prescription and doctor-assisted attachment.

I have tried capsaicin and Lidocaine neither help for me.I don't think they really know how to regenerate nerves so as long as you don't have to take pain pills and if something can mask that pain,I am all in on axon,but until I try it to see if it it works for me as advertised. HOPE is all we have.I think this is the best thing since the scrambler at least on paper and word of mouth
