    About 15 years ago, I had horrible, horrible sciatica pain. I could NOT get into a position that didn't hurt. What worked for me was a T.E.N.S. unit. I used it for several months (the last time was in the early 90's) and I've never had the problem again. You wear the unit clipped onto your belt and stick the pads up and down your back and leg. You control how strong the electric pulse is. It scrambles the pain receptors and makes life liveable again (without the drugs). I'm including some links I found on the web. Good luck! Lisa

    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.
