I slept on my side after my cervical implant. And turned over verrrry carefully when I needed to I was stuck walking around for almost a week after mine with my shoulders up, because it hurt me too much to put them down. You'll see that with the cervical closer to the arms, arm movement will affect the incision pain in the beginning. But that pain will fade and you'll be left with the relief your stim gives you. Hang in there, I know everything will go great!
