CES: Many of my patients use cranial electrotherapy stimulation but all use AlphaStim. None of them use products by Fisher Wallace. I have NEVER had a patient develop anxiety with use of CES. If you are experiencing headaches, the microamperes may be turned up too high or the sessions may be too long for you. I was surprised to read that the Fisher Wallace stimulator doesn't require a prescription??

Turn down: It may be worth trying to turn down the power and see if that is better, all effects are not immediate. If the undesirable effects do not go away, that may not be a good treatment choice for you
