Hello,
Did PT or anyone ever suggest trying or a trial with a TENS or IF stim to help with pain relief since you cannot tolerate most meds?

I would really suggest a few tries to see if either type might help with some of your neck pain and tightness in the muscles of the neck and shoulder.

I have a EMS(muscle) stim (6 yrs old now) and just ordered a new IF(inferential) stim - they can be turned up more without the zinger/zaps happening.
A TENS is often used to block the pain signals , my dad has one for back pain.

Might be worth asking about them.

Dr Molina has been mentioned in the past if I recall correctly, it's been awhile ago though.
If you search his name here any posts should come up.
