Default TENS Unit

Hello, Mom/Daughter, I too am sorry you are going through a flare up. I have had RSD/Causalgia, five years. I also have the TENS Unit and wouldn’t leave home without it. I have to be careful where I put the leads, I had open fractures and multiple surgeries, so I do stay away from the scar tissue. I usually find comfort on a low pulsating level and I put the leads near the attaching muscles. A warm bath is great comfort for the pain and the tension that it produces. Also, you mentioned that you just moved, I am sure you are both going through some adjustments and unfortunately, for RSDer’s this can provoke our pain. I will keep you both in my prayers, maybe try a warm bath for yourself too and know that you are okay, this will pass. God Bless

Jeanie
