and it has just kinda sat in the bottom of a drawer for years... I have problems with the electrode patches sticking...and all their little gimmicks to make them stick just did nothing... and I found that a 20 day patch was lasting about 1 hour at and $30-40.00 a patch it just wasn't worth it...so until they find patches that are cheaper and stick...I really wouldn't waste my money on one... the ones that they use in the doc's office or Physical therapy are stronger and do work...but if used for hours on end can also cause MORE spasms... I really wouldn't waste the money...but that is just my opinion... Jackie L.
P.S. The Cost each month for me was over $300.00 with batteries, charger,lead wires, electode patches, creams for skin irritation, skin preps etc....
