TENS

Pregabalin -v- Tramadol
Hello lovely people I’ve been on Tramadol for over 5 years now and fibro just getting worse. GP has now given me a regime to come off Tramadol and has prescribed Pregabalin. I’m happy about this but wanted to know people’s experience of Pregabalin - does it work well for you 🤞🏻 I’m also on 50mg Amitriptyline

TENS machine, AFl / Afib and aches and pains.
Hi, I wonder if anyone uses a TENS machine for hip and let muscle pain if you also have AFl or AFib? Because of taking blood thinners, most 'normal' painkillers are ruled out because they contain NSAIDs, leaving only really paracetamol for general pain. Or, if not, what do you use to help moderate

BJM Investigation - Galleri promises to detect multiple cancers—but new evidence casts doubt on this much hyped blood test, 08/07/2024
Seems the potential conflicts-of-interests between private healthcare companies and government regulators are not limited to the US. The near-universal policy to follow-the-money seems to also hold true in the UK as well. From the BJM Report: * * * [i]Big promises have been made for the Galleri blood

My TENS unit experience
I purchased a TENS machine recently having read on various forums of others' success with it for RLS. The first night i went very gently, using it at 1/5th of the recommended intensity for approximately 10 minutes. The second night, i upped the intensity to 1/3 of the recommended amount. I also used

EMG and Afib?
has anyone had an EMG and if so did it trigger Afib? The doctor says it shouldn’t, but my first episode was the day after TENS on my feet at physical therapy… Thanks!

Advice needed
Hi, my wife has endometriosis and I am wondering just how exactly I can convince a Dr about the level of pain she is in? Her journey started with very heavy and long periods on average between 10-20 days of very heavy bleeding, then she would have 3-5 days without and then again 10-20 days bleeding
