Excerpt from the 'Declaration of Independence'

 

We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity

The physical therapy department at the VAMC will issue you a TENS unit for a sc'd condition. No need to pay for one if you don't need. I didn't have any luck with a TENS. It only served to give me a new set of problems B)

I have been using a TENS since 1985-in fact still have the original unit. It has 4 wire for 2 pads. It took me about 6 months to find exactly the spot to place the pads. I get great relief. The last few years, I have only had to use it as needed. I found that experimenting with different patches (ie disposable, reusable, pADS WHERE YOU CHANGE ONLY THE GLUE). Keep trying-I can't say enough about finding the right spots. When I found the right spots in mine I got dressed and suited up with pads in only 5 minutes more.

Good luck. If you find they don't work well enough to get relief, try some other kind of remidy.
