Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 I have had some limited success with a T.E.N.S. unit; for me, it can help immensely or not at all, depending on the type of pain and where it is. Your physician may be able to let you try one before buying to see if it is effective in your particular case. Take care, JoAnn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 My physical therapist had used a tens on my shoulder. It helped some when they used it. But that was right before I stopped PT. I went for 7 months. I kept telling my doctor that the physical therapy actually made the pain worse but the doctor insisted that I continue going. I had no choice but to go since it was a workmen's comp case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
