Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 I'm dropping in again with a question. Some time ago I was prescribed an electrical muscle stimulator from RS Medical. I get pain relief during the time that I have it on but it is very inconvenient. It has to be charged at an electric outlet. Then I have to sit down while I am using it. The treatment time is about 40 minutes, 20 minutes pain relief followed by 20 minutes of muscle stimulation. I do manage to get 2 cycles of use before I have to recharge. But I have to sit. The thing is not portable. Now another of my doctors has prescribed a TENS unit. I have one but it is well over 20 years old. I like the fact that I can tuck the unit into my waist band or pocket and wear it all day. I know that technology has changed so much in 20 years so I'm looking for input from any one who uses a TENS. I've tried to find a local place that carries more than one kind but so far I can't find any. I have been told that I can order others but that doesn't help if I don't know the differences. I hope everyone is doing as well as possible and that your weather is as nice as mine. Pat K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
