HFX/NEVRO Stimulator for Neuropathy

I am considering getting the Neuro HFX and I would like to know if anyone can tell me if it work's on the numbness and tingling. I'm currently going to a pain clinic and the meds aren't controlling my pain. Any information would be appreciated.

I had my NevroHFX spinal cord stimulator implanted (following a week’s trial with an external one first) New Year’s Eve 2024. I decided on the iQ app version instead of a manual control. I began with program 1, and am now on program 10, level 12. Confused yet ? lol
I do daily assessment on how I am responding via Bluetooth within my phone app. Every 3 months I have an in office check with the NEVRO rep and pain specialist. YES the numbness and burning pins and needles feeling in my front thigh has greatly diminished . You have to work with the program until you find your sweet spot. But… my leg weakness will always be there if I overdue.
Great program and care.
I got one and it does not help me.
