Has anyone used the Spinal Cord Stimulator NEVRO HFX?

I experienced sudden and severe bilateral nerve damage in both legs and feet in December 2022, due to peripheral neuropathy. I suffered constant excruciating pain and muscle spasms for almost a year, which required me to use a walker and wheelchair. I literally could not stand up, wear socks or shoes, or put a blanket over my feet, without screaming in pain. My mother had to assist me with showering and getting dressed. (And I am in my mid-40's!)

After extensive testing, my neurologist said that I would be a perfect candidate for the NEVRO HFX SCS, and after undergoing the pre-operative tests (including an MRI of mid-spine and a mental evaluation), they placed the temporary SCS in November 2023, which was a complete game changer for me. My pain went from an 18 out of 10, to just a 2 out of 10!

So then the permanent SCS was placed in December 2023, and it has brought me about 80% pain relief, overall! I still deal with constant bilateral heaviness, numbness, tingling, and false sensations in my legs/feet every day, but no longer require the use of a wheelchair or walker! And I have been able to cut back on Gabapentin (for the nerve pain) from 1800 mg to only 300 mg per day.

My "Nevro team" returns my calls within 6 hours, if I have questions or am in need of an adjustment of remote control settings.

I would recommend the Nevro HFX SCS to anyone who suffers peripheral neuropathy!
