Actually painful shocks are not common or routine with this procedure. Had they been common the procedure would have been ruled out for me. My consultations with two of the three top TDCS docs in the country confirmed for me that the procedure is safe and is side effect free if basic protocols are followed.
The worse side effect could be potential skin or scalp burn which doesn't happen if proper protocol is adhered to. |

Sounds like back when the original poster started this thread that they were not using the proper sponge electrodes. If I followed it correctly, sounds like once they got them that the shock side effect went away. It's been a few years since then so I would guess they have probably worked out any of the bugs in that time to come up with proper protocols. All the current information that I've seen says the same thing, that irritation at the site of the electrodes is the only side effect.
