I am thinking of getting a SCS, too. I have fairly good mobility. I stand, walk, amd do daily chores. My problem is mostly abdomen. It hurts to sit and I can't tolerate car rides. I am female and usually wear dresses. Certain fabrics in clothes bother me. Can SCS help for this sort of pain?

Also, I am small and weigh 102 lbs. I do carry my fat in abdomen.

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 one implanted in my hip and attached to my nerved in my mid back area. After about a year a lump develop and along with it came pain. I was told that I needed the terminals changed and the lump would go away. I had the stimulator removed and the lump is still there. I hurts worst ten ever.

Nope! my body rejected mine after i got that lump! after a while your skin will peel at the top of that lump! until you finally blow a whole! and from that whole you will drain fluid! it will stay a whole, until they cut it and stitch it up and REMOVE those leads! they did (3) revisions on either the incision in the Center of my Back to either the one in my hip area because they never could get one or the other to really heal, and when they finally did, that is when I got the lump, and then it did not heal for a year it drain 24/7. and then the battery ripped out of my hip while I was sleeping... but you know what as soon as they took all of it out my body healed up in a week! but for a year and a half, I had one area or the other not healed????
