Wow, you all are SO openly helpful to me as I contemplate the process and follow on use of the stim unit. I am looking at the rechargeable unit and just have figured I would have to integrate the charging process into life as I have with the interferential stim unit I now GUM [is this where someone thinks, EWwww..... ]to my bod. I have to charge the thing after about 4 hours use, so as I look toward the implant and the notion of doing away with the gummy electrodes, the feet long leads which catch on everything and the generator which is like a 1970s calculator [think large], I am catching on to the notion of concern about battery life and charging.

I do appreciate the SHARING, and I hope the pain management with SCS continues to equate to a big positive for you all!!
