Hi everyone,

So unfortunately Codeine just isn't doing anything for me anymore except just making me high and tired. Pain relief is non-existant. I really don't want to go on tramadol or anything stronger as I just won't be able to do my job. I was thinking about trying a TENS Machine, and I have an appointment with my GP about it tomorrow. Has anyone had any experience with this?

Thanks!!

Hello yes I bought a tens machine about a month ago and it works for me. I can recommend a good one (don’t know if I am allowed to on this site so please pm me). It works for 30 minutes at a time, you choose your setting and I usually have 4 pads, 1 inch apart on the area that is sore. It gives me relief and I find it quite relaxing. It’s worth a try x
