New Medtronic stimulator implanted
 

Hi, I just had my stimulator implanted yesterday. It is not on the spine because they couldn't get the trial to work on my pain there, but it's on my abdomen on the left side on top of the nerve that is giving me problems and the battery on the right side. I guess I'm dumb, but no one told me anything about recovery time. I didn't expect to be in this much pain...is this normal??

Nice to meet you!!
