Anyone tried RFA treatment for neuropathy?
Has anyone tried RFA for all the body inflammation caused by a bad case of Peripheral Neuropathy? I am going in for this procedure today and will keep everyone updated. Semper Fi from an 80 year old Vietnam Veteran.

What is RFA?
Radio frequency ablation, as I recall. Had some done, seven years ago. They burned the neves at the L5-S1. Never helped me. Of course not much has helped me.
So are so good on the RFA treatment done yesterday. Best relief I have found so far. Thanks and Semper Fi
I had this for back pain. Out patient mild procedure. Helped with pain but only for 2 weeks.
Just following up on my treatment from this past Wednesday. Unfortunately the treatment only worked for about a day and all the pain has come back. I sure hope others have better luck than I did. Not much that can be done when you are way past the 70,000 mile warranty!!! I am an 80 year old Vietnam Veteran so I have lived a long and wonderful life!!! Semper Fi.
