I have not been on here for sometime. I was sorry to see the red light laser did not work for Hank's wife. How are you doing I am down to using it only 1 or 2 times a week now. I hope you are having the same results. I learned from Hank that too high of a setting and most likely too often can cause more pain. So I use it only on the 1 setting and like I said only 1 or 2 times a week. I couldn't be happier with my results. Hope you are getting good results. If you are feeling more pain then lower the setting and cut back how often you are using it. I know have a different problem I am dealing with. I swim a lot in the summer and for the past 2 years I have developed itchy ears. The opening of my ears itch something terrible. I was told by my Dr. 2 years ago it was probably an allergy. I have tried to check everything I eat and do and sleep on and even my detergent and shampoo. Nothing makes any difference to the itch. This week I am calling my Dr. to see if I could have picked up a fungus at our local pool last summer. That is what the pharmacist said to do. Why is it we can solve one problem and another pops up? Maddening!

Jerid, so glad to hear from you as I was just about to return my TRX also as I believe the pain had also gotten worse rather than improving! Since I have until the end of January for the return I will try using it 2-3 times a week on the lowest setting to see if that will help before I give up! Really want it to work so I can get relief from this every day pain for almost 3 years now! What is your pain like now compared to when you first started this treatment? Thanks Bunny
