Hi, Just a quick report after being away for too long.
At this point I've been using tDCS regularly (as close to daily as I can) for close to the last 10 weeks.
And, while tDCS has not making a difference in my pain - and with lower-extremity I was warned in advance - it has brought about a real reduction in my sympathetic dysfunction, which had manifest as edema and myocardial small-vessel constriction that had finally become refractory to nitroglycerin, resulting in briefly being admitted after a 12-hour stay in the ER, a few weeks before I started tDCS my initial treatment with tDCS. (All of which is done with the anode is applied to the dominant motor cortex: M1.)
But, when also applied to the dorsolateral pre-frontal cortex - F3 - it has largely restored my verbal fluency, something I assumed I would never see again. So HOORAY FOR THAT!!!
Mike
