I use a TENS unit and it really is one of the things that helps my pain the most. If you find it helpful...see if your doctor will write a script for one. I wear it all the time (run the wires under my pant legs) and it's very convenient to have on hand when the pain starts to ramp up throughout the day.

Hi Luna. I've had tens in pt and at home. It helped reduce pain a little in pt, but at home it started to cause pain and cramping, so I stopped. Everyone's different though and I hope it continues to help you. Take care.

I sometimes get some relief from TENS. The only problem is the twitching and jerking counts as exercise and exercise is what causes me the most pain (a day or two later). It also will cause my tremor to worsen if done too long and the tremor keeps me awake.
If done OK though I'll get relief at least for the half hour I use it so when the pain is low I'll use it once in a while. No pain no gain, and high pain isn't affected. |
