Meralgia Paresthetica Pain Relief

Amy suffered for years with pain and tingling in both thighs. She was diagnosed with Meralgia Paresthetica, compression of the Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve. Dr. Aguila is a pain-focused peripheral nerve surgeon who helps patients overcome chronic pain problems. In one surgery he gave Amy her life and her smile back.

 



“My name is Amy, and I sought treatment with Dr. Aguila for a condition called Meralgia Paresthetica.

 

I’m sharing my journey for a couple purposes. Number one to provide hope and number two validation for anyone who is struggling with chronic nerve pain.

 

I had pain in both of my thighs. I also had numbness and tingling. I tried to deal with the pain, but eventually it became so overwhelming that I had to seek treatment because I was unable to drive, to sit for an extended period, unable to walk even short distances. My life revolved around pain and physical limitations. I eventually became homebound by choice because I was emotionally exhausted from the guilt and shame of failing.  

 

Finally, I had a doctor refer me to Dr. Aguila. Dr. Aguila is a pain-focused, peripheral nerve surgeon. This is a very narrow subset of physicians that have the degree of specialized training needed for precision in nerve surgery.

 

I spoke to Dr. Aguila on the phone, and he seemed to understand my condition. He believed he could help me.

 

I booked a trip from my home in Mississippi to see Dr. Aguila in Omaha, Nebraska.

 

I spent my evenings and weekends leading up to surgery replaying over and over Dr. Aguila’s patient testimonials on YouTube. It gave me a high degree validation that I wasn’t creating this pain.”

 

In the operating room, Dr. Aguila decompressed Amy’s lateral femoral cutaneous nerve on both sides. This surgery has a 95% success rate.

 

“Immediately after surgery, I noticed significant changes and improvements as the pain I had anticipated with every movement was gone. I noticed that my husband began walking ahead of me instead of beside me, confident that I no longer needed his help. My confidence and my daily activities continue to build leading to more smiles and more engagement.

 

I have so much gratitude for Dr. Aguila and his team.”
