OMG my new pain gone pen is amazing

I just thought I'd tell you all about my new toy.

I was browinsing a website funky arthur that I read about in the new issue of my arthritis magazine. I came across the Pain Gone pen and instantly wanted one. But it was £50 :(

But then I found it on Amazon for £29.04, and since I have a free trial of Amazon Prime atm I bought it :o

And I think it is amazing. At work today, I didn't need to take any pain killers as I was fine just using it. Tonight my fingers are swollen and I can't really move them, but at least it doesn't hurt.

    I wonder if it works on non-athritis conditions? Anyone else tried it?

    By the way, the direct link to the pen is here. It took me awhile to find it, so thought it might help others!

    I just decided to buy one, as it's worth a go anyway - the cheapest I found was on eBay, which is £22.50 (including postage). This seller has nine still available.

    Will update the thread if it helps me too! I have fibromyalgia and hypermobility, if anyone has similar illnesses and want to know how effective it is.

    I'm lending it to my sister soon, assuming I can bear to part with it.

    The main website says it can be used on most pains, such as
    • back pain
    • arthritis
    • tennis elbow
    • fibromyalgia
    • sports injuries
    • menstrual pain
    • sciatica
    • post operative pain
    • skeletal pain
    • headache
    • aching muscles
    • shingles
    • neuralgia
    • lumbago

  • Ive been unsure about wether or not to get one but after seeing this link on another part of the forum ive ordered one its a mini pain gone pen and you pay just for the p&p £4.95 i thought its less to spend just to try it and see if it works and then you can allways buy the bigger one at a later date

    Hope its useful for anyone whos feeling unsure but would like to try http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=2038067

    Thanks very much to both Juno and magicstrawberry. I've just ordered the mini pen for £4.95 to see if it works. I get severe osteo-arthritis, and sometimes have excruciating pain at work when I've been sitting down in a meeting for too long, so something like this could be wonderful for immediate relief. I'll let you know how it goes!

    Oooh I didn't know I could have a "free" one! I've just ordered one for my sister - this way I won't have to be without mine while she tries it.

    I tried the pain pen, but it didn't help with nerve pain, however, mum uses it for her arthritis [hands / knee] and it does help her.

  • Here's a direct link for the free mini paingone for anyone who is interested.

    I have one of the full size ones and its fantastic! The mini one works just as well but just not for as long (about a year apparently). It's really tiny too so great for popping in your handbag.
