Hello, has anyone tried the SCS Stimwave for chronic pain in their feet? If so, are you happy with the results?

Martyk a month or so ago I tried Stemwave PNS for server knee & leg pain and it didn’t help. One doctor wanted to do SCS , the other said no way do PNS. Do your research and best of luck. I should say Stemwave company was excellent to work with, there for surgery and came to my home 3 times trying to get it set for me but nothing work

I'm sorry to hear that Stemwave didn't work for you. I hope you find something in the near future that will give you some relief. Thanks for responding.

@martyk, I moved your question to this existing discussion about the Stimwave implantable neurostimulator so you can connect with others talking about this device. I see your question is specifically about relieving chronic pain in your feet, so I'm tagging fellow members @jimhd @tigreyes2004 @faithwalker007 who I believe may have relevant experience to share in addition to @sprinrosa64

Marty, what is the cause of the pain in your feet?

The SCS is not for foot pain I THOUGHT. I understood that the PNS is for pain in extremities?
