Default Hi Deb,

I watched the video's and with me, I am always skeptical when something like this comes out. After buying things for so many years that turn out not to be what they say they are I think that did it for me.

My thought would be if any medical places carry this device or if it is only sold on line or by salesmen.

To me, it reminds me of a tens unit and I love my tens units I had and used them forever. The insurance paid for them. I would wonder if an insurance would pay for this. That is an awlfully high price to lay out of your own pocket.

It makes me think of all of those magnetic devices that they say help people. I tried the bracelet and it made me worse and I heard that from others around here. They sell mattresses, pillows, necklaces, you name it and are very expensive.

When people are ill like we are and desperate for good relief we really have to be careful about getting sucked into these kind of things.

Another thing I would want to know if there are ANY Drs. in the area you live in that have ever heard of this device or has used if for a patient.

The tens unit was given to me by my Thoracic Dr. the day of my surgery. I was hooked up to it when I woke up. He didn't care if insurance paid for it or not, he just knew it would help with the pain I would be in from the surgery. He later got me a second one for my other side. I see a lot of people on other forums using one and around here. That's why I would want to know if this has been used by anyone in the area you live in.

Take care,
Ada
