Hi, @fredjan2016 - it sounds like you've been through significant pain with your neuropathy. What is the name of the new treatment you will be undergoing with the injections and electronic device?

Hello Lisa, The injection is a "bilateral posttibial nerve block". The doctor said the electronic device is very similar to a spinal cord stimulator except it is installed above the foot on each leg.

I apologize for the late reply. I had a difficult time getting my neuropathy pain under control yesterday. Like most of us I have low pain days and high pain days.
