Hi Harry ~ By the implant "pocket" are you referring to where they put the "generator?" If so, I had that problem too. The stupid thing tried to even work itself OUT! (yuk) It made pressure sores on each end of the generator, as I was (and still am) quite thin and didn't have enough 'fat' to contain it. Consequently, since the whole unit wasn't doing much good anyway, we had to have it removed which I hate to tell you is a bit worse than having it put in. But I was NEVER sorry.

Talk to your pain doc about this. The generator (if that's what you're talking about) should NOT be causing you ANY pain!!! So please let him/her know ASAP. God bless. Hugs, Lee
