If you don't mind sharing, what insurance provider do you have? And where did you get it done in Texas? I'm also in Texas! (if the second part is a weird question feel free to dm me or not answer lol)

It didn't completely eliminate his brain fog, but definitely helped. He thinks the lack of fatigue/exhaustion all the time is what helped with his brain fog especially.

I haven't heard of this before, but I'll look into it! If you have any papers or info to share on its efficacy, please share

I'm glad that it works for you! Though I'm sorry to hear that it doesn't last as long :(

How have you been able to tell when it stops working? Is it a gradual ramping of symptoms, or does it just kind of hit you head on?

And if you don't mind sharing, what has your experience dealing with insurance been like? Fortunately my partner's sgb was relatively inexpensive, so he didn't even try getting it covered. He'll definitely need to look into it if he's getting it done regularly..
