Wow George, what a great thing to happen. It is true that things do change sometimes many years post stroke. I am sure you are going to benefit from that extra range of motion in all sorts of situations.

(((Hugs))) to Lesley too.

Sue.

Thanks for sharing the wonders of this technology. I share the wonder of the technology that I use - the VNS Therapy. VNS stands for vagus nerve stimulation. It is used for some forms of epilepsy and treatment-resistant depression. I have chronic treatment-resistant depression. While it's not a cure or 100%, it made a huge difference in my life.

It's a pacemaker-like device. The VNS pulse generator is implanted in the chest and its lead wires are attached to the vagus nerve in the neck. The vagus nerve runs from the neck into the brain. The pulse generator sends tiny electrical pulses into the brain via the vagus nerve. It is barely perceptible.

I am so grateful to have this technology, which really helps me with my chronic illness.

George ,

I am so happy to hear that you are getting results. Could you please tell me where you place the pads?

I have one for William and use it occasionally. Wm does not like it.
