    Sorry you have had no replies Kenny. I don't think laser treatment is common in the US. I've suffered from NP for 8 years and when I go to Europe in summertime I get laser as part of my PT routine. I know it stimulates blood flow and it should be good for the the condition. However, it's not like I feel much better after treatments.

      Hi Donald,

      I will be having a nerve block done to see if I'm a good candidate for the StimRouter. Is that the implant you'll be doing as well?

    Burst or High Frequency SCS will help. I still take medication but the SCS has helped live my life.
