Poll Survey: re Battery Placement side

Hi everyone!

As I'm preparing for my SCS implant surgery, I have a question for you all with, or have had, an SCS implanted in their hip. Which side did you have it placed- more specifically, what determined the placement? See, I am right-handed, so it seems like it'd be easier to adjust on my right side. At the same time, however, I also sleep mainly on my right side... So I don't know which of these things is more important when deciding placement. Considering it's going to be there for a long time (mine's estimated 9 year battery life!) I really don't want to make the wrong decision!

Thanks everyone!!!
