I had two SCS put in at the same time (I refer to them as "the twins"), one lumbar, the other cervical. I was in and out of the hospital the same day. They scheduled me so late in the day that just about everyone had gone home and I was laying there in pre-op wondering if the janitor was going to be the one doing the surgery! They were able to do both SCS's through the same incision in my lumbar area, so that saved time as they didn't have to do another incision in the cervical area. So, I'd say yes it can be done and you sent home that same day. I'm like you...would rather feel crummy in the comfort of my own bed than in the hospital!
Good luck on your surgery and keep us posted!! By the way, mine are from Boston Scientific...would this lil' bit of info. help to loosen your lips a little as far as who you're a rep. for???
