Re: DRG Stimulator Best Lead Placement? - time sensitive!

I am so glad so many have had success with the DRG. I so wish it had worked for me. My main problem is rectal and that does seem to be the part that is least helped by the stimulater from what I have read. I won't try another for a while. I have tried three now. The first two were the older ones and...

Re: DRG Stimulator Best Lead Placement? - time sensitive!

I am so glad the DRG stimulation worked for so many of you. It did not work for me. As hard as I tried, I was unable to get relief from it. I'm thankful several have had such great success.

Re: Just had nerve block- worst pain EVER! Normal??

I had a few steroid nerve blocks. They were painful for about two weeks.

The last visit I made to the pelvic floor physical therapist she massaged a ligament directly over the Pudendal nerve. It hurt a little as she did it, but afterwards I had flareups and pain for quite a while.

DRG Neurostimulator (Dorsal Root Ganglion)

Has anyone tried the DRG Neurostimulator? This is new to the USA though it has been used in Europe some 9 years or so. I believe it was approved in the USA by the FDA in 2016. It stands for Dorsal Root Ganglion. It targets an area of the body that causes pain. It is similar to the old stimulators, (...

Re: wondering about pelvic nerves in addition to pudental

Gina H. has posted some interesting information on this website about Dr. Jarnagin's Allograft. Please read them. I am not very computer literate and I hope you will find what she has written and that it will help you. I am not here often as I hurt so badly when I sit even for a very short while; so...
