Ballerina...what do you mean by reversing the electrodes? Reversing with respect to hemisphere (anodal stimulation of both motor cortices), or changing to cathodal stimulation (the black lead over the motor cortex and red lead on the forehead)?
My recollection is that anodal stimulation decreases pain, whereas cathodal stimulation increases it, at least over the motor cortex. I'm also recalling that temple-to-temple stimulation can help executive function; I believe the instruction manual for the Fisher-Wallace stimulator illustrates this electrode position.
