Elecritic Shock sensations?

Today Dustin said his bicept feels crazy. It is shocking like he has the e-stim on. But he doesn't have it on. I think I have read where people have had this and said it was a good thing. Like after that it was like the nerves were repairing and they got some movement. Anyone who has had this we would like to hear, either good or bad. Just wondering what it means.
Thanks, Sue

I don't get it from my OBPI, but I get it in my left leg which is paralyzed. Happened way more in the begining, after it happened. It can be a sign of things improving, connections being made... can also just be crazy sensations where nothing improves. Just telling you the possibilities and not trying to be a downer. But neurogenic sensations/pain don't always mean good things are happening/improving. Just be aware of both possibilities.
Good Luck! And I hope that for Dustin it means improvement!!!
