Any good stories about Nevro....

I'm due to start a trial with Nevro in a couple of weeks. Up to this point I have only seen negative remarks about the system.  Any positive remarks?

    Pam,

    I have also only read negative posts about the Nevro, some people must be getting better, otherwise why would any Dr.s want to put them? My husband and I have talked about this a lot. We figure that the only people who come back to talk about the Nevro are the individuals who had problems or it didn't work. Everyone else is out living their lives.

    Please let us know how it goes for you. I have had 3 back surgeries and numerous procedures and trials but nothing has helped. My pain Dr has been pushing me to have a trial of the Nevro HF10, I am saving it for a last resort.

      What are you doing to manage your pain now?

      Pam I am on pain meds but they are barely doing anything for my pain. A couple weeks ago I had a Selective Nerve Root Block, the pain came back before we even got home. Tomorrow (Tuesday) I am going in for another Selective Nerve Root Block, I am hoping it will give me some relief this time. I think that I can get 3 of them, if it doesn't help then I will be back at my Neurosurgeon to see whatelse can be done.

      Please let me know how your trial goes, I truly hope you are able to bet some relief. Can you tell me if you are in the USA or a different country? I am in a small town outside of the Dallas- Fort Worth Texas area.

      I'm in Indiana. How long have you been dealing with this?

      6 years ago I had a lamenectomy and the Neurosurgeon left "debri" behind. I was worse off after I got out of surgery, since then I have had 2 fusions. I am in constant pain and we are leaving right now for me to get another Selective Nerve Root Block.
