Has anyone had the Stimwave spine stimulator installed?

I had the StimWave implanted for over one year. I am contemplating removal because it doesn't work for me, although it worked somewhat during the trial period. I am considering neck surgery and one of my pain management professionals suggested I might want to leave the implant because it might help during my recovery period from surgery.

Hello @lhs and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Did you doctor mention why it may have worked better for you during the trial period? Other members have shared that feedback before too.
