Thanks for the update, Natasha. If you could, also find out the model and make of the machine when you go back on Tuesday. I am wondering if your vet is using a full blown frequency generator unless you have specifically seen the word Zapper associated with the machine?? The more expensive generators have a greater range of frequencies for more pathogen-killing power.
