@texasaviatrix I had a DRG stimulator implanted in me about 4 months ago, and it barely does anything helpful at all. Pretty useless. I would suggest that you google "Stimwave blogs" to perhaps find real people who have it, and what their experience has been. By the way, I get Nevro Spinal Cord stimulator advertisements on my facebook page, and literally, easily 100 people have written negative reviews about their stimulator. Utterly terrible reviews with horrific descriptions of their condition due to the Nevro. I think Nevro advertises because if they get 1 or 2 people to use it, then their mission is accomplished. For what it is worth, I have a feeling that ALL of these devices only help very few people, and sometimes help for awhile, and stop working. Be very careful and research from real people, not advertisements. Also, research Kratom. It is a leaf from a SE Asian tree that really helps nerve pain. Message me if you want to know more. I have read what you are going through, and it is horrific. I am just so sorry. LoriRenee1
