Re: 2od treatment-no pain

Hi Skip,
Thank you for posting and keeping us updated. I am so happy to hear the 2nd treatment was easier. I would also come home after treatment and take a warm soothing soaking bath. Also placing a heating pad on her legs is comforting and helps with the cramps that sometimes comes with the treatment and elevating her legs with a pillow can offer relief.

Best wishes being sent to both of you...hey did I mention a soothing back and neck massage from hubby is wonderful also!

Hugs,
Jean
