Paddle. They tend to be a little more challenging to remove, but my neurosurgeon had no difficulty,
I will be having a trial of a new SCS in three weeks

I may have missed it, but why did you have the Medtronic removed if you're going to trial another SCS? I currently have Boston Wave writer. The battery and the connections at the base of the leads stick out so much I'm afraid they well come through my thin skin.
I will follow and wish you the best
