Welcome to Connect, @nelsonpowell.
I'm wondering if you are talking about an implantable neurostimulator, sometimes called a spinal cord stimulator? We have several members who have experience with this chronic pain treatment, including @ladyjane85, @jimhd, @medic7054 and others. You may wish to read their comments as well as many others on this discussion:

Nelson, when will you start the trial?
