My question is for anyone who has an SCS if you have ever experienced anything like this. The site has no redness,or swelling and I have no temp. Thanks to anyone who can answer me-Carol

Carol..
I have my SCS battery in my lower back left hip area..Since 9/08... It is not red or swollen .. I can touch it lightly without pain... unless someone taps me there or hit by a rail or door etc...it does hurt..for a while afterwords like pheontome pain... the wires leading up my back internally..make my back very tender, often I wonder if my RSD is in my back as well....cuz my back hurts a bunch... up the center of my back...I wonder if you may have had some movement of your battery or possibly the beginning of an infection at that site...I wouldn't wait too long for more negative signs.. possibly have a Dr. visit to mention it mostly because it was not a problem before...and they can eithe confirm your sucpesion or not..
Keep me posted and let me know how you are doing...
Hugz for luck... KS
