My husband just sent me this link and I am just wondering if it would be worth it.

I'd save your money. For about $400 you get a little usnit that sends small jolts of electricity through your forehead, allegedly to stimulate the trigeminal nerve. We've seen a small percentage of sufferers respond favorably to the surgically implanted electrodes, but obviously that's a whole different arena.

Several board members have posted of trying their "tens" units on their headaches with very little in the way of positive results.

This was recently posted on a couple different spots on this board, so the idea is being worked on, but not quite effective yet.
