But It Got Better . . .

Today I felt probably the worse I’ve felt since this sciatica thing started a few weeks ago. In fact after a really bad time, tossing and turning all night, I didn’t even want to go to work, but I knew it was possible that our office manager might be out sick, since she left early on Friday.

Plus my new TENS unit was supposed to come in today, so I wanted to get started with it as soon as possible. And I’m glad I did go in since it turns out that our office manager has the flu.

Oh boy, Something else to get sick from.

And since I was pretty blah at work, and it was pretty quiet, my client told me to go on home an hour early. I had already been using my new TENS unit. But I couldn’t put the electrode pads in the right position without stripping down, but I did feel a little better. So getting home, we made a Yummy Yummy run for an early dinner.

Back home I let Jan put the pads in place shown for Sciatica treatment , which for me was one right about the waist line on the left side, and the other one on the same side on the upper thigh. I then turned it on and and raised the level until it was a definite tingle.

Then I went and laid down for a couple of hours,  and for the first in days I slept with no pain, and felt great when I got up. I used the unit several times on and off the rest of the evening and still felt great.

Now if it just works the rest of the night.


Thought for the Day: 

“It would be nice to spend billions on schools and roads, but right now that money is desperately needed for political ads.”
