It was literally the only treatment left to me after 10 years of major depression, 12 suicide attempts, and 40 hospitalizations. THIS DEVICE WORKS! IT SAVED MY LIFE AND GAVE ME BACK A NORMAL LIFE WITHOUT IT I WOULD CERTAINLY BE DEAD. I am fighting Medicare for payment. People have to know this really works. But it's all about money. If VNS is done the pharmaceutical companies would lose billions on medications that aren't necessary anymore. So the insurance companies are refusing to pay.

I have tried 50 different combinations of drugs that have all failed. I am a nurse practitioner and I want my life back. Please tell me how I can get in touch with patients who have had it implanted.
