I've done e-stim before, both western and with acupuncture.
In fact, I was doing acupuncture in Fremont after I was first diagnosed - my insurence covered that. Did that for ... I dunno, several months. It was on the way to TC when I lived there and I'd get up early and do a pre-work session. I'd be the first patient and often, they had just turned the lights and heat on, so it was dark and cold. The acupuncturist had a solid longstanding rep, but only some were covered, and I grew suspicious because it wasn't delivering. They forgot about me once, leaving me on an e-stim for way too long in a back room. I finally quit after a session where they set up the needles in such a way that the e-stim crossed my gluteals and so it basically made my ass flinch for a half hour. My issue is cervical. How tf does shocking my ass help? That was one of my negative experiences with acu.
I have an appt with my old chiropractor in Palo on Tues. If I don't snap out of this, Stacy may drive me. I'm feeling a little better now - worked at my workstation for a bit - but am now working off my laptop in bed again. I'll make another push to work sitting up soon - I'll need my workstation for some upcoming tasks.
