How did you get a tens machine? Was it prescribed by a doctor for your PN? or for something else? Ask the doctor who prescribed it if its ok to use on your PN if it wasnt prescribed for that.
Nope, it was prescribed by my doctor and the physical therapist for my back (I have degenerative disc disease and spondylolisthesis and disc dessication and arthritis). I did ask my doctor before I tried it on my feet though, and he said it was.

My name is Sarah and I am 25 years old. I have a lot of chronic health problems. Peripheral neuropathy and POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) keep me bedridden the majority of the time. I also struggle with degenerative disc disease, disc desiccation, spondylolisthesis, arthritis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) with insulin resistance, allergies, sound sensitivities, and other health problems.
