Wow!!! A stroke? The more I hear others experiences with these stimulators the more convinced I am to get it out.
How long did you have yours in and was the surgery to remove it as bad as putting it in?
Thanks so much for sharing

@smithki got mine in 2014 .. it kept breaking down … then I was told the wrong leds were fitted , and I could not have an mri . It kept breaking down .. it’s stopped working completely in 2019 , it was driving my blood pressure up from pain it was left in my body till sept 2024 .. I was put to sleep completely.. never felt a think .. but getting it in was a different story .. I was 6 hrs in surgery awake , to were to put the leads .. then I was wheeled out of surgery to be told they could not get the led up my back .. and they would have to retry surgery again. .. we are pure guepigs for them there just chancing there arms in my opinion..
