Hello @alineechelard - this is a great question. You can find some more information on vagus nerve stimulation at Mayo Clinic here, https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/vagus-nerve-stimulation/about/pac-20384565.
Typically, nerve procedures or diagnoses involving the nerves are seen by the Nuerology department. If you'd like to seek an appointment or a second opinion at Mayo Clinic you can use this link to get started, http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63.
@alineechelard, if you are comfortable sharing, are you dealing with an injury or pain that interests you in this form of potential treatment, or are you exploring additional treatments to help with fibromyalgia pain?
