Default SCS problems after charging...

Hello all!

My wife has had a spinal cord stimulator for a number of years as the result of an accident back in 2004. Periodically she would have severe pain in the heart area, difficulty breathing, blood pressure drops dramatically, feeling faint (occasionally passing out), sort of mild stroke symptoms (out of it, slow thinking, dizzy). These seem to last a couple of days and then everything's ok. She's been in the hospital many times recently and they have verified it's not a heart issue.

Just recently I noticed a definite correlation between when she charges her stimulator and then the next day she has these symptoms. This has been going on for maybe 4 months and has gotten progressively worse. Has anyone ever heard of these issues with stimulators? Thoughts?

Thanks!
Lorne
