I just got a TENS machine - I've got a knee that has hurt for years, every step I took, some days more, some times less, and it threw my balance off, made my hips ache and my back protest - half a dozen 15 minute sessions and it is not hurting most of the time.

It only cost me 15 pounds sterling - about 30 US dollars, - batteries not included. No one told me about these things - even after physiotherapy and painkillers failed. Then last week I called in at the pharmacy and saw one, got a rundown on what not to do with it, took one home and today I was even thinking of taking a walk, until the hailstones started to fall.

Maybe - perhaps? one of these could be of some help to you? Look it up on Google or Wiki it.

I do hope so, I feel that I have drawn a real live 'get out of jail' card.
