Nanc, I do have the headache problem like you described. I also have a cervical implant that seems to have triggered the headaches and my doctor agrees. However the benefits of the stim are so beneficial that I just try to deal with the headaches.

I have found that if I change the program it sometimes helps. I use a moist microwave heat pack on the back of my neck to help relax the muscles that I tense up when I am having a headache. Excederin Migraine has helped me too, but it sounds as if you already have medication for headaches. Somedays it is just a dark quiet room. I have not found anything that helps with the nausea that comes with the headache, maybe you have some suggestions?

I have to admit that I do drive with my stim on. I was really nervous at first but have gotten used to it. I now know what position to hold my head while driving and that helps with the jolts. I do watch for the heavy duty electrical lines be cause it seems that those always give me some extra zip. Lisa
