I’ve just been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. I’m experiencing some intermittent pain in my mid back region. Has anyone ever tried a tens machine for relief? Many thanks !
Hi tuneful
Sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis. I can sympathise with your pain. Mine has been constant for months so I’ve tried most things.
if yours is intermittent, TENS is worth a go. So is a good hot water bottle imo!
Im on fentanyl patches now which have revolutionised my pain management.
