Mag,
It's actually a high intensity ultrasound. The pain during the procedure
isn't fun, but it does seem to be helping, when nothing else had. They try
to get the pain level as high as the person being treated can take (Janet
gets to an 8 or 9), as the ultrasound breaks down scar tissue around the
tendon sheaths. It then has a chance to heal more normally.
I'm sorry to say the thread on Trisha's mom reminded me of todays bad joke:
Hans Zumouth, the butcher of Dusseldorf, growing more and more
desperate over the ever-dwindling supply of cheap meat in the
peace-ravaged community, resorted to trapping birds for use as
sausage-stuffing, then collapsed from the guilt of violating his sacred
oath as a gastrophysicist, having taken a tern for the wurst.

An unreasonable man (but my wife says that's redundant!)
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one
persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress
depends on the unreasonable man.
