Thank you. The injury is a little over 3 years old. I put a tens unit on his left foot and maybe 30 minutes later he was able to get some sleep. Just not sure where to put the unit especially since he can't feel the leg, just shooting electric pain. He has tried injections, spinal stimulator, nerve medication and is currently on opioid to help with break thru pain but that shouldn't be a long term solution

@siouxchef1973 Maybe the docs can order a nerve conduction test to help figure out where to place the leads? Otherwise, your method of trial and error will have to do.
