@ws4k Wow, I feel your pain. But how much knowledge of this Stimwave SCS unit do you know?
Does it have parethesia? & How is it MRI or X-Ray Compatible?
Because there are different units that are not recommended for use in diagnostic testing I'm suffering from my Cervical, thoracic, & lower lumbar, DDD, & herniated discs all over. However my Husband just got a SCS implanted thru Nevro Senza HF10 that doesn't have parethesia. Charging takes 20min a day he uses a special belt w/clip on battery & 15-20 min he's fully charged.
This type of SCS implant is the only unit that can be shut off on your remote & activated back on after MRI'S or X-Rays. So before you get your permanent unit implant you may want to ask about this type of unit.
I wish you all the Best.
Stay strong & Healthy.

Thanks so much
I’m just in the beginning stages of learning about this device and procedure so I know almost nothing yet. I really appreciate your kindness in taking your time to explain your experience with it. Blessings

Just as an FYI, I have a Medtronics SCS and it CAN be turned off for scans and it IS MRI compatible.
