On July 19th I had the generator implanted on the left side of my abdomin. The incision has healed properly, but the generator still moves. Sometimes it under my ribs and sometimes it just protrudes out of my abdomin. Has that happened to anyone? What have you done to keep it in place?

I had the SCS Implanted also, and it took a year and a half to try to keep that thing in my Body!!! before my body rejected! Up on my left side of my back I developed a goose Egg, about the size of a golf Ball!! it stayed there for about 6 months, then the skin kind of peeled off like a Sunburn if you will, and then another layer, and another layer, and another until there was a whole about the size of a q-tip. it drained fluid liquid 24/7 clear, no smell we had tested several times for infection but nope it just kept draining, I could stick a Q-tip in it all the way to the end of the q-tip???? Dang! and then where the power/Battery was it turned black???? yeah you guessed it, it started to peel, and then one morning I woke up and I could see the battery silver thingy! my skin had torn open and was a hot mess! Yes can you say emergency Surgery????
