Are you SHOCKED?

C,
If you are born with some crazy or staticky hair, it will totally be your dad's fault. When we last visited with the doctor, Bo asked about some things that might alleviate the lower back pain that I have been having. (Apparently carrying around a new gigantic tummy has changed my posture a bit.) He wanted to know if I could do a "stim" treatment. In a nutshell, it is electroshock therapy.

I have done it a few times and it really does seem to help the pain. When you hook it all up, you get to choose how strong the current is, but you feel like Frankenstein. I guess I will keep trying it at least once a day, and the release of endorphins is supposed to make you feel great. (I thought that was the purpose of eating chocolate...)

Since it is just transmitted through my skin, there is practically no chance that you even notice what is going on. But I think your hair will be the deciding factor in whether or not this was a good idea.
