PLEASE, go over the waiver carefully BEFORE vein ablation & ask your provider, specifically, if it could negatively effect your neuropathy. TELL them what drugs you take for neuropathy & don't rely on them to read your medical history. Mine got MUCH worse after the procedure & the numbness & other issues can last for YEARS, not the 7-10 days they told me up front. Evidently, the cannula can hit nerves during the procedure. I consulted my vascular doctor because my feet were turning bright red & I thought it was blood pooling. After 18 months, the redness is worse, has spread to my ankles & the doctor is clueless, shrugs his shoulders & tells me to come back in 6 months (so he can collect another Medicare payment). I had plenty of pain in my feet prior to the ablation, but no numbness. Now my feet & lower legs are numb, as well as painful. I still have achy legs as well. Not saying you shouldn't have the procedure, just be cautious & aware of all the possible down sides. Maybe get a second opinion, since you still have time. The sad part of my experience is, I had just started Gabapentin 2 months prior to the ablation and it provided so much relief, I thought it was a miracle. After 7 years of misery, I finally found something that helped my suffering. Then I had the vein ablation & to my regret, it all came back with a vengeance. I wish you all the best.
