How to get an objective expert opinion on spine stimulators?

I know about 6 people who have had the Nevro HF10 implanted. For half of them the "permanent" one did not perform like the trial one did. Why? I can only guess that the leads were situated differently than the trial ones. Mine works so well that I forget to charge it...until my back starts to hurt. Then I have that "duh!" moment as I smack myself in the forehead with the heal of my hand.

I see from the brochure and holding the device in my hand, that it is not a tiny device. Does the size of it, once implanted bother you in any way? Is it uncomfortable when you sleep on your back? Were you required to see a back surgeon along the process of getting ok'd to get one implanted?
