Default HELP URGENTLY NEEDED - Ballerina's electrode placement protocols

Hi everybody,
Can anyone remind me what Ballerina's electrode placement protocols are?
I don't feel too good and it's a trawl through this mammoth thread.
She had luck with tinnitus, which is my area of need, using a pain protocol.
I would be terribly grateful for the help.
Also, anybody in touch with Ballerina, where's she posting now? If you speak
to her send her my best regards, thanks.

Wishing you all good health.

Nick

Hi,

I tried locating the info about tinnitus but the only post I saw off hand
ballerina mentioned, was page 1 of the TDCS thread, she said after one
week of treating twice a day the tinnintus had vanished. I do recall
another member had mentioned tinnitus as well but cannot recall who
that was. I could be wrong but perhaps CRP James. Have you tried
any of the protocols yet, if so which one.

I haven't heard from ballerina I hope she is alright.

Hi again Nick,

An additional response. You might go to Doc Fugedy's website
www.transcrainialbrainstimulation.com. Look under the condition
of tinnitus. He has some protocols listed there. Hope this helps

Default Sorry if I missed this

Didn't go thru entire thread so if info was posted, forgive me but my question is, I already own a TENS device (BNS 40) that my dentist prescribed for TMJ. Can this be used as A tDCS device simply by placing the electrodes on my head as opposed to my jaw?

Hi,

That would be a no, but a tens unit can be used in conjunction with
a tdcs unit. Best wishes.

I haven't been allowed many treatment options so I haven't tried TDCS but I use my tens unit often.. though not directly on RSD area I do find that if I use it on surrounding area the spasms stop for brief periods. also I use it on my back and neck to treat for rediculopathy... it helps that with in turn is another minor relief. but like you all know minor relief is the difference of staying in bed forever or lightly living your life.

Default Tdcs

I bought a phoresor II auto PM 800 from ebay and am having trouble with the electrodes. The machine came with built in alligator clip style electrodes that do not appear to be able to be changed. I tried clipping them to the amrex sponge electrodes but they wouldn't stay. I also tried clipping them directly plain sponges but that wouldn't work either. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Sorry if I am missing something obvious.

I am very very sorry to hear this. I was hoping so badly that you would see some improvement by now. How many protocols have you tried? What has Dr. Fugedy said about your progress (or lack there of)? I really hope you find something that helps...
