Default Concern re battery site

Maybe it's because I was feeling SO well the first week after the op and coming home, but since then my condition has deteriorated. The parasthesia, which they said was "interesting" and useful to have in the notes, has gone, but I am still getting weird feelings I my left leg from the knee.

The more worrying thing is I feel unwell .. Can't explain, just unwell .. Temperature. My back is leaking a little but is ok .. But today I woke and the battery site is hurting when I touch, which it hasn't till today. There is a red lone on the skin at the bottom of the battery and it feels tender and throbs when I stand up.

I just want reassurance as to whether anyone else has had this? Is it normal because I am spending more time in bed this time. This time last operation, when they inserted the stim, I was in Greece!!!

Just a bit worried and don't know where else to look on the Internet for advice.
