Default My battery is a 'pain'

At the moment Im just over 7 weeks from surgery. My battery is on my left butt, well more on my hip/waistband area. The actual incision has healed and looks 'sealed' however, I find the actual battery 'sore'. When I lie down I can nearly feel the battery digging into my skin. But moreso when Im lying on the couch or slightly sitting up in bed. You know how when you sit, it kinda 'folds' slightly and it gives me the oddest feeling. I feel as if its going to push up or move even. I also notice that when I feel around the battery, which is rare as I cant stand the feel of it in my body, well not yet anyway, I notice I have little lumps, or well I dunno what to call them only lumps around the actual battery. Is that scar tissue do you think? or just part of me!? Today we went out for lunch and I was able to sit longer than usual because I have my stim on yay!!!!!! but after a while I did feel odd with this feeling of the battery in my back. I always bring a cushion to lean against as I sometimes find the chairs or seats are uncomfortable, or at least not comfortable enough to cater for my back!!. I do hope that what Im feeling is 'normal' and that in a few months I wont even notice it is there!!! just the pleasant feeling of pain relief!
