In Reply to: TENS unit - Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator posted by Jon Miller

My husband has an pinched sciotic nerve. The doctors say it is inoperable. He was told today that a nerve stimulator is the only answer. Is this the same as a tens unit? He has had injection after injection plus prolotherapy(which made him worse) and now the doctor says the stimulator is the only answer. Please give me your imput. God bless, Donna Grey
