Hi Bri!
Welcome to the forum! 
Oh dear! your symptoms are screaming 'infection'! I wonder how your doctor can think this doesn't have anything to do with your implant!
The fluid around battery could be a hematoma or something and perhaps your headaches, vomiting and dizziness are after effects from the anesthesia, but fever and pain hmmmm.
Is your headache a constant one or does it come and go? A spinal fluid leak causes bad headache. I don't know much about a SFL other than they tell people to drink caffeinated beverages and lay flat in a darkened room.
I'm glad they are gonna do a spinal tap.
A lot of neuro's don't like to admit that something may have went wrong with their 'handywork', but he needs to keep a close eye on you.
I'm sorry you are going through this.
Is your stim turned on yet? and if so, do your symptoms die down when you turn it off?
Please keep us updated with what they find out!
We care!
Rae
