In 1997, Mike got a steroid injection for minor low back pain and has lived with various levels of pain ever since. “Over time, the pain got to a point where I could barely walk without limping and couldn’t lift anything over 20 lbs.,” Mike said. He also couldn’t sit or stand for long periods. The pain affected Mike emotionally, too. “According to my wife, I was a crabby old man.”
The pain was difficult for Mike because, for most of his life, he was very active—playing sports, fishing, hunting, and woodworking. “I was able to do just about every physical task I wanted. I even completed a marathon at age 50.”
After more injections and surgery that left him with numbness in one leg, pain management Dr. Dustin Ward suggested that Mike look into Nevro HFX. After months of research, Mike agreed to a temporary one- week trial device in November 2021. After some adjustments, his pain improved by about 75%. He decided to go ahead with the HFX implant.
Now, Mike is back in the woodshop, making furniture, and having fun again. “Emotionally, I am a new person. I smile more and have been walking more. For the first time ever, I joined a golf league.” He added, “I can honestly say HFX is my new friend.”
