I had a disc rupture in my back and it caused severe nerve damage. The Dr. said I would never walk again, at that time I was 24, With lots of willpower and 3 kids to take care of.< Two have Cerebral Palsey > I knew I had to get better, so with alot of therepy, prayers, I have came a long way. I still have back problems ,some days worse than others, but I am a fighter. I have a Tens Unit and NO I wouldn't recommend one for anybody, it was a waste of money as far as I'm concerned. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!363!15!Jean.West Internet: Jean.West@f15.n363.z1.fidonet.org
