To Stim Or Not To Stim?
I begin outpatient physical therapy on Wednesday and Dr. Goldstein has written "electric stim" on my prescription.
Can we have "a show of hands" on who uses electric stim AFTER receiving their implant? I understand that Dr. B has told at least one patient not to use electric stim after their ADR. I have a portable TENS unit that I LOVE, but I haven't tried it yet as I am a little nervous about using it since reading that. I may even call the office to verify it but it is clearly marked "ELECTRICAL STIM" in black white & cyan... I take less drugs when I use electric stim so I would be a great thing. I'll take those burn marks over the LBP anyday. So does everyone think this is a good thing?
