I like the looks of that program too. But I have a serious question about it, the same question I have about a TENS unit.
I was sent, by a very gracious lady here in our forums, a tens unit free of charge!  But now that it is here, I am afraid to try it. I have used one in the past, it was a great help. But I got online to check out placements for the electrodes, and found several warnings regarding people with epilepsy (like me) having seizures from using a tens!!  I didn't have epilepsy when I last used a tens unit, so I was totally unaware of the risks. So, apparently, was my dr.... she tried to get approval of a tens from my ins. co. (But she knew I would never agree to go to PT 3x a week).
Anyone here familiar with this problem? I'd appreciate some advice or comments. I DO plan on trying this tens unit out... I have just had a bad streak recently, and want to wait for a more stable time in which to do it. I will certainly be able to try it by the end of the week, I will post again and let you all know how it goes.
