Help! Where can I hire a TENS machine?

[Al&Em]

Have left it very late (am 39 weeks) but am desperately trying to find somewhere locally that hires out TENS machines. I had been under the (naive!) impression that you could leave this to the last minute and stroll into any pharmacy to get one but have tried Boots (Forest Hill and Peckham), Lloyds, Co-op and Kings CH with no luck! Does anyone know of anywhere locally that supplies them? Am running out of time and hope!

Thanks

Have you tried this?

Although I'd be tempted to just buy it outright, as the hire prices seem pretty high.

Mothercare also seem to do them.

I have an Elle baby care tens you are more than welcome to borrow. You will need new pads but they are available from Mothercare. PM me if you would like it.

Hi all

Thanks for all the tips and suggestions - I've managed to track one down at the Fourways Pharmacy! Mothercare didn't seem to know what I was talking about (especially when I started asking about replacement pads!) and maintained I had to order one online... But got there in the end - hooray!

Thanks again

My wife found the TENS machine a life saver (Gas & Air didn't really do it for her). Hope it works out for you, best of luck! :)
