Hi All
Some weeks ago I posted regarding the Bowen Therapy
Remember I had been a member in the Brain Talk for many years and had to re register here under a differant name and I lost my number of postings..
Anyway as far as the Bowen Therapy is concerned, for me it was a waste of time and money.All the time I attended, her remarks were , I see you are getting better ect ect. They work on the pressure points and muscles around the body , pressing certain parts to so call release ones hidden energy, I had 5 visits , and made no differance at all , so I have stopped
My program now is that I heard of a Proffessor of pain , which was about 450 klms from here , so I went to see him, I was so impressed with his attitude , and approach to my problem,even to the point of him taking photos of my feet, which at that point I was having a attack of blue spotches all over the under side of my feet , He said it was the worst P/N he had seen
He put me on to a extra drug called (Lamotrigene) 50mg 3 x per day . I have been to him twice now , and he has introduced me to a physiotherapist to recieve a differant Tens machine , called Neurotrac Tens Verity Medical Ltd. The web site is
Sales@Veritymedical.co.uk the machine is so small and easy to use , not like the previous one I had, was like a space shuttle with all the dials and knobs on it , This one has 1 button to turn it on and 1 button to increase the strength, I have the 2 pads at present on the lower half of my back each side on the spine, started of with 3 hours per day increasing to 8 hours. The controls fit in ones pocket.At present I feel good with only light sensations in my feet. So my present regime of meds are
Neurontin 2400mgs per day
Lamotrigine 150mg per day
Amitriptyine 50mg per day at night time
He also advised me to take Thomsons Mens Multi antioxidents
1 tab per day
Plus the Tens machine
As I have tried many more , this is the best combination yet
Ok thats about all , We have winter here in New Zealand , where we live we have just had our first snow fall , the 6 ski fields are open , I wished I could get back to that again , maybe soon ha ha
Cheers from NZ matia
