2nd day of irTMS treatment

Well, I survived my 2nd day of TMS. The intensity of the pulses reduced consistently over the 75-100 over the course of 38 minutes. I don't know exactly how many episodes there were. That is challenging but what I find even more troublesome is the uncomfortableness of the table and having to keep the position for such a long time. I need a massage - I am still getting muscle knots and spasms in my neck, shoulders, arms, upper back.

I never did get any headache yesterday from the first treatment. But apparently it was not at full strength. I need to get more details - not sure if I got full treatment today, but I know it was higher than the first day. I did wake-up easier and more alert then usual this morning, but the doc says it could be a placebo effect.

BTW, I did start to get weekly massages after the first week of treatment and then I added chiropractic adjustments. I get an hour of massage on Sunday and an adjustment on Monday and then my tolerance for treatment during the week is SO much higher.
