Before my lumbar surgery I used my TENS unit quite a bit. I haven't used it since my surgery.
Before my last MRI I was going thru the process of having a SCS installed. Part of that process was the MRI and a visit with a psychiatrist to see if I was OK something foreign installed in my body. That MRI showed too much damage which led me down the path of surgery.
As far as using the TENS unit, it provided me relief, sometimes I might have taken an extra neurotin or a pain pill if it was a really bad day. The combination of the two took enough of the edge off the pain that was I able to relax somewhat.
Good Luck
