Hello nicom26,I did do the NEVRO trial on March 13th. I had it removed after 5 days on March 17th. It was actually 4 days. It was inserted at 1pm on the 13th and removed in the doctor's office at 1pm on the 17th. I had pain in my lower back, legs and right foot. I don't think I got 50% relief. I did get some relief but I don't think it was 50%. I was expecting a higher percentage. So I saw another pain management doctor on Monday and he does the permanent SCS but he wants to see a 70% improvement in pain before he implants a permanent one. So he thinks we should try an epidural injection on Monday. I will let you know how I make out. Good luck to you.
Marty
