Default SCS problem

I had my permanent SCS implanted about 3 months ago for a pelvic nerve entrapment. Although it works for pain it is causing some sort of interference with my body. From the start I've noticed a decrease in urine output and large amount of abdominal edema when the stim is on. This is my third time turning off my stim, each time having the reversal of symptoms. I've been off for 1.5 weeks now and have resumed normal urination and bloat is down. Has anyone else had this problem? My Dr has not done a SCS implant for this nerve before and doesn't know why my SCS is doing this.
Thank you for any help
