See How Jerry Returned to Cycling with HFX
Jerry is literally on the road again – as an avid cyclist who rides an average of 150 miles each week and competes in bike races – now that HFX has relieved his back pain.
Jerry’s passion for cycling was first interrupted in 2002 when narrowing in his spinal column started causing him pain. He eventually had a spinal fusion and was able to resume riding again until 2008 when the pain became unbearable.
“It has added longevity to my career and improved my overall quality of life.”
Then, in January 2016 Dr. James Stephens recommended an HFX trial, which was so successful that Jerry decided to go forward with the implant. Since then, Jerry reports that he has had almost no pain.
“Without HFX I would have been medically retired and inactive, “Jerry said. “It has added longevity to my career and improved my overall quality of life. Not only do I not have to take narcotic pain medication but I am more active than most people my age.”
