Using the device has been a very good experience all in all. The acute care companion (I think that’s what it’s called) has canned music that comes to the fore at the end that’s too percussive and repetitive to be relaxing, but the other audio tracks are fine. One thing that has been an unpleasant surprise and an unfortunate development is that the patient can no longer obtain refills on one’s existing Nerivio device up till its expiration date by pressing the refill button. We now have to purchase an entire new device, arm band and all, at full price, each time the 18 treatments have been used. This causes distress for the patient who has limited funds and moreover makes no business or economic sense. It also causes environmental waste. Sending the old device to be “recycled” is of little or no consequence. I hope that we can get back to using our devices until their given expiration dates. Mine is to expire a year from now (9/19/24), yet I’ve only four more sessions I can now use. It will now be rendered useless once I’ve used them up.
