    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

    I've just ordered one, worth taking a chance for £4.99 postage, if it is good I'll buy the bigger one. Thanks for the details

  • I just ordered two of the free mini pen, from the towerhealth website. I had to pay double postage, which was just under £10. Still a bargain though. They said the mini pens usually cost £14.99.

    I ordered one for me, and thought I'd order a second one as a xmas present for a friend who has fibromyalgia.

    Thanks juno and magicstrawberry and freebiefind, and everyone who has commented on how good the pens are. I hope both me and my friend find them just as effective in reducing pain.
  • Happy to help! Let us know how you find them

    Glad it works for you but it may not be suitable for everyone, I have RA, osteo porosis and other minor things, I bought one and used it for a week and I ended up getting an irregular heart beat, nearly passed out it was very scary, dr said it was the pen causing it as it delivers mild electric shocks. So I'd say if you're thinking of buying one try one out if possible first.

    It does say you can use it for migraine, but you don't actually use it on your head, you use it on the relevant points in your wrist

    My sister's mini free one came today! It is quite mini, but hopefully still good

    I got mine a couple of days ago (the big one). I'm not sure how much it helps. It's not miraculous, but I guess it's kind of distracting. It's too painful to use on one areas though, like I have particularly painful wrists and the muscle under the thumb, but it's just too much - and makes it twitch!

    I ordered one last night, i take it it works on the same principle as a tens machine?
    just passing through.... Nothing to see....
  • My mini pen arrived this morning. O H is using it on some of his arthritis, It also seemed to numb some of the siatica pain I have.
