I want to know more about TENS stimulation

I'm not diabetic. Every test I've had says that I am perfectly normal. Bloodwork, x-rays, MRIs, you name it. I had a pain pump implanted two years ago which has not provided any relief The PN symptoms only appeared about six months ago. Very odd and frustrating.

There are Neuropathy clinics all over DFW now, all FDA approved and medicare approved as well. They provide treatments with electro-frequency devices used with combined electro-analgesic therapy. It is used to stinulate nerve cells and overall nerve signaling. It increases blood flow and available oxygen necessary to regenerate and heal the nerves. The goal is to normalize overall cell function. They call it "the most innovative treatment for reversing and healing peripheral neuropathy". If it is approved by both FDA and medicare, it must help some!
It did not work for my condition, which is not been diagnosed as neuropathy. Still searching for the cause of my lower legs and feet burning and feeling on fire, especially at rest. I've passed many neurological and vascular tests trying to find the cause so it can be treated properly. Gabapentin just drugs me, has too many side effects, and should be a last resort. But I've had a spinal surgeon and a neurologist prescribe it. In other words, they're baffled by it and prescribe pills to block the pain.
