Guest guest Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Kacey, my doc recently wrote a prescription for a TENS and I didn't go get it. I thought it was a waste of time and money! I'm sure it's not the same kind you used, it's the traditional TENS, I wonder if it would be worth it to try? I don't have neck pain - most of my pain is in the joints of my hands/feet/knees/hips...well, duh, all my joints!
